Coupling between Two Arbitrarily Oriented Dipoles through Multilayered Shields

The electromagnetic coupling between two arbitrarily oriented dipoles through planar multilayered shields is analyzed. The method of approach utilizes the plane-wave spectral representation of radiation fields [1] and the transformation matrices for multilayered media. Numerical results are found to be in good agreement with the experimental data for magnetic dipoles in the frequency range of 10 kHz to 1 MHz.
