Characterization of an Unintentional Wi-Fi Interference Device - the Residential Microwave Oven

Some devices not used for data communications radiate in the 2.4 GHz wireless-fidelity (Wi-Fi) band, thus causing unintentional interference that degrades the performance of IEEE 802.11 wireless systems. An analytical model for radio emissions from one of the most common unintentional interferers, t...

Zusammenfassung:Some devices not used for data communications radiate in the 2.4 GHz wireless-fidelity (Wi-Fi) band, thus causing unintentional interference that degrades the performance of IEEE 802.11 wireless systems. An analytical model for radio emissions from one of the most common unintentional interferers, the residential microwave oven, is developed from laboratory measurements. Simulation of the analytical model results in a power spectral density and spectrogram that are in good agreement with experimental data. An interference mitigation technique is proposed for the microwave oven emission
