Abstract :
A radio-frequency (RF) barrier provides a means of reducing antenna-to-antenna coupling between an electromagnetic-interference (EMI) source and victim. Unfortunately, there is very limited quantitative knowledge available on the isolation capabilities of RF barriers. The results of a geometrical theory of diffraction analysis of barrier isolation effectiveness are presented that delineate important tradeoffs in RF barrier implementation.<>
