On-going projects
Core Competency Building for High-Speed Sub Nano Second Digital Design for Signal integrity and Electromagnetic Emission Compliance
At high-speeds, signals' integrity (SI) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) due to the system is no longer determined only by the device technology but also influenced significantly by layout of the board. In view of the importance of SI and EMI radiation in high-speed digital circuit, the proposed project aims to achieve the following objectives:
a) Board Level Signal Integrity Analysis
b) Board Level Radiated EMI Analysis
Modeling Transmitter and Receiver Systems RF Components for Prediction of Out-of-Band Performance
Understanding the sub-system circuitry of transceiver is essential for the for the characterization and modeling development in order order to achieve high accuracy and precise prediction of performance indicators. Therefore in this project, in-depth investigation will be performed on transmitter and receiver systems operating in various frequency bands.
Completed projects
EMC Design for High-Speed Digital Board
With the worldwide concern of electromagnetic pollution (or commonly known as electromagnetic interference, EMI), the research collaboration facilitates the exchange of design expertise between European and ASEAN universities to reduce the unwanted electromagnetic emission from consumer electronics (PDA, mobile phone, MP3 player, etc)
Light-Weight Shielding Material
To explore the feasibility of using porous metal as light weight and rugged electromagnetic shielding material for building that requires protection against external electromagnetic fields.
Power Line Communication Design with Low Radiated Emission
To explore mechanism of emission from Power Line Communication Systems for designing effective solutions to lower emission from Power Line Communication network.
Critical Study of Red/Black Signal Coupling and Isolation
Design guidelines developed on the basis of experience may not be valid for high-speed system, resulting in leakage of comprising emanation by means of electromagnetic radiation and signal coupling from RED to BLACK lines. Therefore in order to prevent leakage of comprising emanation from high-speed systems in this project, design guidelines valid for high-speed boards will be developed on the basis on theoretical background and fullwave electromagnetic simulation.
Developing Semi-transparent EMI Shielding on Flexible Substrate
In this project, a light weight EMI shielding material is to be developed which is also transparent to some extent. The semi transparent shielding will be prepared by printing on a transparent substrate to achieve good shielding using an Advanced Printing Technology.
Correlation of Reverberation Chamber with Semi-anechoic Chamber
To study the correction of results tested in reverberation chamber and in the semi-anechoic chamber.
