Experimental verification of predicted electromagnetic field radiated by straight connecting cables carrying high-frequency currents

This paper provides an experimental verificationof analytical expressions for predicting radiated electromagneticfields from straight interconnect cables carrying high-frequencycurrents. These analytical expressions are derived through twodifferent models. The former model is based on the assumptionthat a radiating two-wire transmission line can be considered astwo Hertzian dipoles, while in the latter one each radiating wireis treated as a chain of short radiating dipoles. The radiated fieldis calculated and measured at selected locations and the resultsare compared in order to verify the agreement among them.Different configurations (two parallel cables at various distancesfrom a conducting ground plane) are considered
