Evaluation of the Efficiency of Conductor Placement Under Different Types of Pulse Interference in Differential and Common Modes

This paper investigates of the efficiency of using different ways of placing conductors with identical and unequal characteristics before and after switching under different types of pulse disturbances in differential and common modes of influence, obtained on the example of a four-wire modal filter (MF). The results show that the location of the main and redundant conductors in the MF and the type of the interfering signal significantly affect its efficiency. When a digitized interference signal C9-11 is used, an increase in the amplitude at the output of the structure is observed for two configurations in common (by 11.3% and 10.4%, respectively) and one in differential modes (by 18.7%). However, when a bipolar pulse is used, amplitude changes are observed for only one configuration, in differential mode (2.4 % increase). U sing the conductor configurations discussed above can help account for channel degradation due to aging or component wear, allowing prediction of performance degradation in different modes of operation. Switching to the appropriate configuration at the right time allows the performance changes to be compensated for.
