Abstract

Model of a generic printed circuit board (PCB) in a presence of a finite-sized
metallic ground plane is introduced as a commonly occurring scenario of electronic module whose electromagnetic fields are disturbed by a nearby object. Finite-difference time-domain simulations are performed for this scenario and a scenario where the PCB is replaced by near field sources following Love's equivalence theorem. Both scenarios are compared and the maximum total error is evaluated as 84%. It is then demonstrated that including the bottom metallic layer of the PCB,
as its characteristic feature, in the latter scenario leads to significantly lower errors - a figure of 33% is reported.
