Learning outcomes
After approved course the student shall be able to
- Give examples on how electromagnetic noise is generated in large and small electrical systems
- Show theoretically how electromagnetic noise couples to a electrical system
- Explain how electromagnetic noise can be reduced in an electrical system using proper layout, shielding, grounding and filtering

Content
Introduction to ElectroMagnetic Interference (EMI) including a review of relevant electromagnetic theory
Sources of electromagnetic transients. High frequency response of electrical components. Coupling mechanisms of electromagnetic fields with lumped and distributed electrical circuits. Electromagnetic shielding and shielded cables. Surge protection components and filters; System design for ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and grounding.
Laboratory exercises: two laboratory exercises, (1) Testing and EMC standards, (2) Shielded cable.
Instruction
Lectures, lessons and laboratory works. Some of the course topics will be presented with table top experiments in the classroom. Hand in assignments can be given in those lectures.
Assessment
Written examination at the end of the course (4 credits). Passed laboratory courses (1 credit).
