Cable crosstalk analysis and simulation in terms of tempest

Today, advances in electrical, electronic and communication technologies are causing the dimensions of electronic circuit designs to shrink gradually, which can lead to problems in terms of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk. These problems, which can occur during the design of electronic circuits, can also occur during the transport of power and data cables in installations. These problems are of great importance especially for institutions or companies (public institutions, Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) etc.) that process, transmit and store confidential information in their electronic environment. For this reason, many standards and directives have been published and continue to be published. In this study; the rule of maintaining at least 10 cm seperation along the entire wiring line between power or data cables defined as RED and BLACK, which is specified in SDIP-29 standard and MY-401 standard, will be analysed. Firstly, the theoretical background of the crosstalk between the cables will be given in order to perform this analysis. Then we will talk about how the TEMPEST concept emerged and together with TEMPEST installation rules. Then, experiments will be carried out with the devices set up for the analysis of the crosstalk between cables, and the obtained measurement results will be interpreted. In addition, the CST (Computer Simulation Technology) program will simulate the crosstalk and the results will be given. Finally, the accuracy of the results obtained by comparing measurement and simulation results will be checked and all these findings will be interpreted in terms of TEMPEST.
