I. INTRODUCTION
Most electrical power used needs some kind of
processing before being consumed. Almost all of this
processing is done by switched power converters (SPCs),
like rectifiers, inverters, dc/dc converters, etc., used in
uninterruptible power systems (UPSs), variable-speed
drives, active power filters, and many other applications.
Several proposals have been made to reduce the problem,
like the use of soft switching techniques [1]-[3] or spread
spectrum commutation patterns [4]. Nevertheless, hard
switching is still playing a main role in electric power
conversion [5].
The most relevant characteristics of SPC, from the
EMI point of view, are the following.
1) Many nonlinear components involved in a complex
geometry- some common modeling techniques based
on finite-difference time domain (FDTD), method of
moments (MoM), partial- element equivalent circuit
(PEEC), etc., used in the simulation of conducted
and radiated EMI of printed circuit boards (PCBs) or
even power systems [6]-[8], are not suitable for a
commercial SPC with a complex geometrical
structure [9], [10].
2) Wide range of time constants involved in SPC
operation - First, are those related to output
fundamental frequency (app. range > 1ms). A
second group consists of switching frequency (app.
range 1s < <1ss). The third group is related to rise
and fall times and transients during switching (app.
range 10 ns < < 1s).

VI. CONCLUSION
A new method for conducted EMI prediction in an
SPC, using frequency-domain techniques applied to
simplified equivalent circuits has been proposed and
tested. The frequency-domain approach provides quick
and robust simulations and avoids problems of
convergence, which are typical in time-domain
simulations. The agreement between simulated and
experimental results is well within the uncertainty limits
of the site and the measuring equipment up to 5 MHz.
The model uses a source-propagation path-disturbance
calculation structure which facilitates the prediction of
influence on emitted EMI of different modulation
techniques or converter layout changes and allows
sensitivity calculations, which may be very useful to
achieve new improvements on already built equipment.
