Library of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Data: Ott, Henry W., 1936- Electromagnetic compatibility engineering / Henry W. Ott. daskalakispiros.com
The book focuses on practical, cost-effective design techniques to ensure electronic equipment is compatible with its electromagnetic environment and complies with international regulations. It balances theory with application, keeping complex mathematics to a minimum to ensure high readability for designers.
by Henry W. Ott is widely regarded as the definitive resource for engineers aiming to design electronic systems that function reliably without interfering with other equipment. Published in 2009 by John Wiley & Sons , this 872-page volume is a comprehensive revision of Ott’s previous classic, Noise Reduction Techniques in Electronic Systems . About the Author: Henry W. Ott Published in 2009 by John Wiley & Sons
by Henry W. Ott. It is a revised and expanded version of his earlier work, Noise Reduction Techniques in Electronic Systems . Core Technical Content
The primary strength of Ott’s work lies in its ability to bridge the gap between theoretical academia and the harsh realities of the engineering workbench. Many engineering texts focus heavily on Maxwell's equations and abstract field theory, leaving graduates unprepared for the "black magic" reputation often ascribed to EMC. Ott, however, approaches the subject from a practical perspective. He demystifies the phenomenon of noise and interference by focusing on the fundamental physical mechanisms. Rather than presenting EMC as a checklist of regulatory hurdles to be cleared at the end of a design cycle, Ott posits that EMC must be designed into the product from the very beginning. This shift in philosophy—from testing to designing—is the central thesis of the book. Noise Reduction Techniques in Electronic Systems
His previous work, Noise Reduction Techniques in Electronic Systems , was already a classic. However, the 2009 release of Electromagnetic Compatibility Engineering was more than a second edition—it was a complete overhaul. Ott updated the text for the 21st century, addressing:
