Tissue heating due to radio frequency (RF) energy absorption in human body for patients in a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) environment is one of the primary concerns about MRI related safety issues for patients, especially with the presence of sizable metal implants such as circular external fixation devices. This paper proposes a novel method to evaluate the MRI RF induced heating effects of circular external fixation devices utilizing an innovative leg phantom. A number of essential geometrical parameters, i.e. number of screws and wires, ring frame diameter, strut length, and insertion angle were numerically investigated to study the RF induced heating mechanism and behaviors of circular external fixation devices. Numerical results suggest that non-wire configuration with fewer screws, large ring frame size, relatively large strut length and the maximum insertion angle pointing outwards may lead to the worst case MRI RF coil induced heating. The peak spatial average specific absorption rate (SAR) over 1 gram can approach 341.3 W/kg with a 2 W/kg whole body SAR.

Improvements in high frequency signal transmission places requirements on meticulous jitter modeling and prediction techniques, which have to provide precision below 1 ps. In general timing jitter is divided into random and deterministic jitter, where the latter includes data dependent jitter, which is the focus of this paper, since it can be the dominant cause of jitter and it has proven to be challenging to model. Traditionally, jitter arising in eye-diagrams of high speed channels is modeled using a transient simulation with a length of thousands or millions of bits. This approach can be very time consuming. Hence, statistical eye analysis techniques are developed, providing for fast prediction of eye diagram and jitter [1]. However these techniques are only applicable to linear systems, which can be an important constituent for jitter in high speed channel simulation.

The ability of an enclosure to protect its contents from electromagnetic interference is quantified by its shielding effectiveness. Previous research has proved that the contents of an enclosure may greatly change the internal field and thus the shielding effectiveness. The power balance method is an efficient approach to analyze shielding problems of populated enclosures. One assumption of the power balance method is that in the steady state, the electromagnetic field in an enclosure is homogeneous. In actual circumstances, however, the presence of losses in an enclosure often compromises the field homogeneity and the power balance method may become inaccurate. A diffusion equation approach has been previously proposed to overcome this problem. In this paper, we predict the internal electromagnetic field of a populated enclosure by using the diffusion model, and compare them with the fields obtained by the power balance method, a fullwave electromagnetic solver and measurements, to demonstrate its efficacy. Comparisons between the diffusion model and the power balance method show that for populated enclosures, the internal electromagnetic field varies with position and that the diffusion model allows this to be observed.
