Radio Interference

This handy pocket reference offers essential data on radio frequency interference (RFI) for advanced ham radio operators, wireless engineers who troubleshoot interference problems, and technicians.

The book describes how interference can be managed so that radio systems co-exist, without harmful mutual effects, within a finite amount of spectrum. This is timely in view of the increasing proliferation of wireless systems. It covers both the processes, such as regional or international coordination, as well as the engineering principles. Written by an author with extensive experience in the industry, it describes in detail the main methodologies for calculating or computing the interference between radio systems of the same type, and also between radio systems of different types

Active remote sensing is the principal tool used to study and to predict short- and long-term changes in the environment of Earth - the atmosphere, the oceans and the land surfaces - as well as the near space environment of Earth. All of these measurements are essential to understanding terrestrial weather, climate change, space weather hazards, and threats from asteroids. Active remote sensing measurements are of inestimable benefit to society, as we pursue the development of a technological civilization that is economically viable, and seek to maintain the quality of our life. A Strategy for Active Remote Sensing Amid Increased Demand for Spectrum describes the threats, both current and future, to the effective use of the electromagnetic spectrum required for active remote sensing. This report offers specific recommendations for protecting and making effective use of the spectrum required for active remote sensing.

EMC Pocket Guide: Key EMC facts, equations and data covers radiated emissions (RE), frequency versus time domain, common PC board Issues and effects of ESD / preventing ESD problems.

For readers who have interference to their home electronics equipment from power lines, radio transmitters or other noise sources, this is the book for them. Written by a team of experts to help people find and use simple, practical solutions to interference problems, the book has clear step-by-step explanations that tell why it happens and what to do about it.

This authoritative resource describes how to assess and mitigate RF interference in radio systems and presents effective methods to identify and resolve RFI before, during and after its appearance. Authored by a leading authority in the field, this book provides engineers and managers with the knowledge they need in the control of Radio Frequency Interference. Readers find practical guidance in an array of critical areas, including engineering of radiocommunication and wireless systems in light of RFI, identifying RFI modes, electromagnetic compatibility and spectrum sharing. Key concepts in evaluating radio frequency interference, propagation on obstructed paths, interference protection radio and RFI resolution and mitigation techniques such as filtering, spectral capture, radiolocation, cancellation and cognitive radio are covered in this book. This book concludes with prospective for RFI resolution in future radiocommunication systems.

With more and more wireless devices comes more interference, this book shows engineers how to locate, reduce and eliminate the source!
