LVDS drivers (and LVDS receivers) can be the source of significant interference emissions. Read about how to measure differential-mode and common-mode currents on the pins of LVDS ICs using new micro-probes in this article from Langer-EMV. … [Read more...]
U.S. DOT Rethinking Position on Self-Driving Vehicles
Officials from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) are rethinking their position on self-driving vehicles with the intention of getting more of this emerging technology into the public’s hands. In 2013, they felt that self-driving vehicles should be limited to testing and not "authorized for use by members of the public for general driving purposes.” In a recent … [Read more...]
Interference Forces Move of ESA Tracking Station from Perth
The European Space Agency (ESA) is being forced to abandon their 35m tracking facility near Perth, Australia, due to encroaching urban sprawl and interference from television news vans. They’ll be relocating 140 km further southeast to New Norcia. The 35m dish will be replaced with a newer technology 4.5m dish with wider field of view that has the ability to track low Earth … [Read more...]

Christmas Lights Can Interfere with Wi-Fi Signal
Following the Tuesday release of a Wi-Fi Checker app, it was revealed that Christmas lights can affect Wi-Fi signal performance. Wi-Fi is susceptible to interference because it is an RF signal, and “other devices operating within the same or similar frequency range” can pose a problem, says Mashable. Unshielded wiring such as Christmas lights can interfere with RF signals as … [Read more...]
LTENA Conference Discusses Challenges and Advancements of Antennas
The LTE North America conference recently discussed the evolving environment of antennas and their contributions to the functionality of wireless networks, according to RCR Wireless News. Tony DeMarco, chief product officer and GM for Matsing’s base station antenna unit, introduced a spherical antenna, which is said to offer improved performance for roughly equivalent weight … [Read more...]
Wind Turbines Could Cause EMI; Pose Danger to Vermont Airspace
Recently, the Federal Aviation Administration has determined that wind turbines projected for construction on the border of Swanton and St. Albans, Vermont, would jeopardize the airspace of the Franklin County State Airport and the Boston Air Route Traffic Control Center. “According to a Notice of Presumed Hazard posted on the FAA’s website, the 499-foot-tall wind turbines … [Read more...]
