ABSTRACT
This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book explains the cavity model of a planar circuit is described in terms of an initial-boundary value formulation and a reciprocity-based integral relation. It describes a computational method for solving the reciprocity-integral relation for the case of a loss-free, instantaneously-reacting planar circuit. The book discusses the incorporation of relaxation behavior in Time-Domain Contour-Integral. It explains the computational model for efficient analysis of Time Domain ElectroMagnetic (EM) mutual coupling between arbitrarily-shaped planar circuits is developed with the aid of the reciprocity theorem of the time-convolution type. The book introduces reciprocity-based closed-form expressions for the evaluation of pulsed EM-field radiated susceptibility concerning a planar circuit. It presents the both EM penetrable and impenetrable inclusions can be easily accounted for upon solving a space-time integral equation.
