摘要

In this paper, the equivalent cable bundle method (ECBM), an efficient simplified modeling method of the complex cable bundles, is modified for crosstalk prediction of complex cable bundles within uniform structure with arbitrary cross section. The foremost attributes of the modified method are a) the cable bundle within uniform structure with arbitrary cross section can be mapped to equivalent cable bundle above an infinite perfect electric conductor ground plane during the equivalence procedure, b) the culprit and victim conductors are divided into two groups separately during the grouping process, denoted as the culprit group and victim one, which do not participate in the equivalence procedure compared with the original ECBM for crosstalk problem, c) an effective eight-phase procedure is established to define the electrical and geometrical characteristics of the reduced cable bundle model. Numerical simulations performed on a selected cable bundle surrounded by a rectangular cavity illustrate the efficiency and the advantages of the method. This method is considered as a key step for the ECBM to find wide applications in real systems.
