Abstract

Purpose. Current trends in reducing the size of radioelectronic equipment (REE) and increasing the density of components make it more difficult to ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). One of the most dangerous types of interference in providing EMC is conductive ultra-broadband interference (UWB). To combat it, a method called modal reservation (MR) has been proposed. Due to modal distortion, incoming interference is weakened by decomposing it into several pulses with lower amplitudes and delays in arrival times. Since the development of the first MR device, many methods for implementing and designing it have been developed. Despite a large amount of research being consistently reflected in reviews, there are no data on recent advancements in MR, and analysis of individual implementations is fragmented. At the same time, the functionality and operational characteristics of various schemes have not been sufficiently systematized, and clear areas of optimal application for each method of MR have not been defined. Therefore, a systematic review of ways to implement MR is relevant. Since a comprehensive description of all variants of single-, double-, and triple MR would lead to an excessive increase in the volume of material, this work focuses only on methods based on single MR. This solution makes it possible to examine in depth the basic principles of system construction, analyze in detail the implementation features, and objectively evaluate the advantages and limitations of the methods. Thus, this review aims to fill gaps in the existing systematization of knowledge about MR. Methods. To analyze the evolution of methods, lines of development of technical systems are used based on the theory of inventive problem solving. Novelty. For the first time, both previously developed single MR methods and new ones are comprehensively covered in a single work. Results. The result of the work is a systematic view of the current state of the unified MR. Practical relevance. The practical relevance of the work lies in providing the basis for the successful implementation of projects on MR.

Key words
