Abstract:	This work presents the use of unscented transforms (UT) for the description of statistical uncertainty in electromagnetic coupling between cables. UT greatly reduce the computational burden for the statistical analysis of nonlinear problems compared with more traditional approaches such as the Monte Carlo technique. Coupling between cables has a nonlinear parameter dependence and has a high variability due to the variability in the cable braid manufacture and the highly variable nature of cable layout. Therefore, cable coupling can only be defined within statistical limits. First, it is shown that by analyzing the resonances the important features of maximum coupling and the point of maximum coupling can be characterized. It is then demonstrated how UT can be used to efficiently identify the parameters which contribute significantly to the uncertainty in cable coupling and then to provide a measure of the probability distribution for the multivariate problem.
