Abstract
Shielding effectiveness of a protective metal enclosure with apertures and receiving antenna placed inside is numerically considered. The purpose of the antenna, here considered as a dipole, is to detect the electromagnetic (EM) field level within the enclosure and to transfer this information via a coaxial cable to a network analyzer. This follows the experimental procedure used to measure the shielding effectiveness of enclosure. A numerical model, based on the Transmission-Line Matrix (TLM) method enhanced with so-called wire node, is used to simulate this dipole antenna/cable arrangement in order to investigate how much it disturbs the level of shielding effectiveness due to their two-way coupling with EM field inside the enclosure. The numerical model, whose accuracy is proved by comparison with experimental results available in the literature, is used to consider the influence of radius and length of the dipole-receiving antenna and the impact of cable presence on the distribution of EM field inside the enclosure and shift of resonant frequencies for normal and oblique incidence.
