Electromagnetic Interference
EMI ISSUES IN WIRELESS DEVICES
Numerous interference cases reported over the ISM band 2400 – 2483.5 MHz.
From Cisco, « 20 Myths of WiFi Interference », White Paper, 2008:
• “Interference contributes to 50 % of the problems on the customer’s Wi-Fi network. “
• “In a recent survey of 300 of their customers, a major Wi-Fi tools provider reported that
“troubleshooting interference won ‘top honors’ as the biggest challenge in managing a
Wi-Fi network.””
• “67 percent of all residential Wi-Fi problems are linked to interfering devices, such as
cordless phones, baby monitors, and microwave ovens.”
• “At 8m, a microwave oven degrades data throughput by 64%.”
