Abstract

An electromagnetic model for the response of multiconductor connectors is presented. The model is based on the canonical problem of the electromagnetic response of a thin circumferential slot in the shield of a cylindrical multiconductor transmission line (MTL). The problem is formulated for a shielded MTL of arbitrary cross section with impressed sources driving the interior of the MTL. The problem of interior-to-exterior coupling is solved by treating the slot as a thick aperture in the shield. The equivalence principle is used to divide the original problem into three separate parts. Two coupled integral equations are obtained for the equivalent surface magnetic currents, which are solved by the method of moments, and equivalent networks are presented. The equivalent networks consist of three generalized admittances, one of which is interpreted in terms of a connector admittance. >
