Optimal cable screening braids determined by a computer-aided statistical planning method

The design of cable braids is still based on experience and experiments because a correct modelization of the transfer impedance is not showing correct results if all the construction parameters of a braid are taken into account. A computer-aided statistical planning method allows one to calculate a maximum of figures by making a minimum number of experiments. The method is presented, practical results of improvements on known cable constructions are shown, the measurement procedures based on the triaxial measurement method and the current injection method, are given with practical hints.<>
