Description
A large amount of natural or artificially produced physical phenomena are exploited for practical applications, even though several of
them give rise to unpleasant consequences. These ultimately manifest themselves under form of malfunction or definitive failure of components
and systems, or environmental hazard. So far, manifold categories of inadvertent or deliberate sources have been discovered to simultaneously
produce useful effects in some ways but adverse ones in others. In particular, responsible for the growing interest in the last decades
for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) has been the progressive miniaturisation and sensitivity of electronic components and circuits,
often operating in close proximity to relatively powerful sources of electromagnetic interference. Potential authors of books on the
subject-matter are fully aware of the fact that planning production of manageable handbooks capable to treat all the EMC case studies
of practical and long-lasting interest could result in a questionable and difficult undertaking. Therefore, in addition to textbooks
providing a thorough background on basic aspects, thus being well-tailored for students and those which want to get in contact with this
discipline, the most can be made to jointly sustain a helpful and practicable publishing activity is to supply specialised monographs
or miscellanies of selected topics. Such resources are preferentially addressed to post-graduate students, researchers and designers,
often employed in the forefront of research or engaged for remodelling design paradigms. Hence, the prerequisite for such a class of
publications should consist in arousing critical sense and promoting new ideas. This is the object of the present book which tries to
rather discuss special subjects, or throw out suggestions for reformulating conventional approaches, than to appear as a reference text.
A common motivation encouraged the contributors to bringing together a number of accounts of the research that they have undertaken over
the late years: willing to fill the important need of covering EMC topics rather proper to transmission and distribution of electric
power than, more usually, to Electronics and Telecommunication Systems.
Audience
This book is suitable for scientists, practising engineers, members of the community, institutions and standard bodies, higher level and
postgraduate students, undergraduate students, lecturers and teachers.
