Book Description

September 29, 2004 0849320879 978-0849320873 1
As the number of electrical devices in use continues to grow, so do the challenges of ensuring the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of products and systems. Fortunately, engineers have at their disposal an array of approximations, models, and rules-of-thumb to help them meet those challenges. Unfortunately, the number of these tools and guidelines is overwhelming, and worse still is the thought of investigating their origins and confirming their results.

The Electromagnetic Compatibility Handbook is an unprecedented compilation of the many approximations, guidelines, models, and rules-of-thumb used in EMC analyses, complete with their sources and their limitations. The book presents these in an efficient question-and-answer format and incorporates an extremely comprehensive set of tables and figures. The author has either derived from basic principles or obtained and verified from their original sources all of the expressions in the tables. Mathcad was used to generate most of the plots and solve many of the equations, and the author includes the Mathcad programs for many of these so users can clearly see the variable assignments, assumptions, and equations.

Designed to be of long-lasting value to engineers, researchers, and students, the Electromagnetic Compatibility Handbook is ideal both for quick reference and as a textbook for upper-level and graduate electrical engineering courses.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding self teaching tool for EE's, February 7, 2007
This review is from: Electromagnetic Compatibility Handbook (Hardcover)
The book covers a lot. See the Table of Contents. The main thing to note about this book is the writing style. It is incredibly easy to read and learn from. Even seasoned professionals will find plenty to justify the purchase. I think its strongest usage should be with EE students. I recommend it highly for EE students as it covers much more than straight EMC material. Like circuit analysis, transform operations, circuit design,electromagnetic theory. It takes time to explain many everday things in good detail as examples of theory application.
True the paper is thin. You can see through it to the content on the other side but you quickly get used to this. Suggestion for the next edition is break it into two volumes and use better paper.

5.0 out of 5 stars Complete Coverage of EMC, January 1, 2007
This review is from: Electromagnetic Compatibility Handbook (Hardcover)
Mr. Kaiser is an authority on EMC and this book brings together a career of research in this field. Materials from his other accessible works are included. Likely the most complete assembly anywhere of EMC/EMI reference tables, charts, and comparative test results. A best value - to own the same coverage one would expect to buy several texts.

One suggestion is to print the next edition on a different thin paper, perhaps vellum. A higher cost would be justified in improved page opacity and strength, and probably permanence. Not at all a handbook, it's a thick single-volume encyclopedia, and a keeper.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, January 6, 2009
By 
DP de Lange (Cape Town, South Africa) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Electromagnetic Compatibility Handbook (Hardcover)
The one-sided reviews found elsewhere are of limited value. The book goes into great detail on subjects covered, which is usually good, but are sometimes overly elaborate with long derivations making for a very thick book. With circuit simulation programs freely available, it is not clear why the complete transfer function formulas for various filter are derived. Transmission line characteristic impedance formulas are handy if you don't have it already. Readers who are interested in Bode plots, time domain analysis, high voltage breakdown, Laplace transforms, Fourier series graphs, and mutual inductance should find it valuable. For the other subjects listed under the contents, I would look elsewhere.
