This technical reference describes the underlying principles of how and why electrical cables function, why they might or might not require shielding, what sort of shielding might be required, and how that shielding should be terminated. The content is directed towards applications in the areas of hardware and system design, integration, and operation, including computer hardware, communications, industrial instrumentation, and automotive and aerospace industries.

Basic electromagnetic theory and some specific extensions thereof underpin the entire body of work. Sufficient references are provided to enable the interested reader/researcher to pursue further, more in depth information as desired.

Cable Construction and Shielding Termination Techniques for Control of EM Interference offers thorough and practical guidance to engineers in industry and academia who need to identify whether they have a cable problem, to capture the essence of their cable design problem if they indeed have one, and to provide a tangible approach to finding a solution.
