Radio Frequency Nonionizing Radiation in a Community Exposed to Radio and Television Broadcasting

Exposure to radio frequency (RF) nonionizing radiation from telecommunications is pervasive in modern society. Elevated disease risks have been observed in some populations exposed to radio and television transmissions, although findings are inconsistent. This study quantified RF exposures among 280 residents living near the broadcasting transmitters for Denver, Colorado. RF power densities out...

Out-of-Band Radiation from Large Antenna Arrays

Co-existing wireless systems, which share a common spectrum, need to mitigate out-of-band (OOB) radiation to avoid excessive interference. For legacy systems, OOB radiation is well understood and is commonly handled by digital precompensation techniques. When using large arrays, however, new phenomena and hardware limitations have to be considered. First, signals can be radiated directionally, ...

Out-of-Band Radiation from Antenna Arrays Clarified

Non-linearities in radio-frequency (RF) transceiver hardware, particularly in power amplifiers, cause distortion inband and out-of-band. Contrary to claims made in recent literature, in a multiple-antenna system this distortion is correlated across the antennas in the array. A significant implication of this fact is that out-of-band emissions caused by non-linearities are beamformed, in some ca...
