Abstract

At university level, virtual instrumentation techniques are extensively used for both education and research in various fields of electrical engineering (EE). In this paper, we illustrate the possibility of using a virtual instrumentation approach focused on LabVIEW to create interactive simulations for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Firstly, the main reasons for adopting the LabVIEW graphical programming to develop such tools are given. Then, a number of specific modules are presented.

Highlights

  • During the past two decades, LabVIEW – a fullyfeatured graphical programming language from National Instruments – has been used by millions of engineers and scientists to develop sophisticated measurement, test and control systems

  • LabVIEW has capabilities to easy integrate with the leading tools used both in research and education [1,2,3,4,5]

  • Thanks to its advanced simulation capability and intuitive interfaces, LabVIEW allows conducting realistic EE experiments even if there is no access to real equipment [6,7,8,9]

Summary

INTRODUCTION

During the past two decades, LabVIEW – a fullyfeatured graphical programming language from National Instruments – has been used by millions of engineers and scientists to develop sophisticated measurement, test and control systems. Thanks to its advanced simulation capability and intuitive interfaces, LabVIEW allows conducting realistic EE experiments even if there is no access to real equipment [6,7,8,9] For such a reason, we decided to use LabVIEW for building simulation models intended to illustrate EMC concepts. The component parameters are set interactively and the resulting impedance circles are shown instantaneously [10]
