The suppression of intermodulation product generation in materials and structures used in radio communications

Describes a research programme aimed at providing a practical engineering solution to suppressing structural intermodulation interferences. The results are useful not just to mobile radio communication services, but to satellite communication or any radio installation where intermodulation effects are prevalent due to a multiplicity of systems. A brief survey was done on the mechanism of structural intermodulation. A more probable mechanism based on metal-semiconductor rectifying effect is suggested
