Mitigating Interference and Noise in RF Communications

EasyChair Preprint 15132

Abstract

Radio Frequency (RF) communications are critical to modern wireless systems, ranging from mobile networks and satellite communications to Wi-Fi and military applications. However, interference and noise pose significant challenges to the reliability, clarity, and efficiency of these systems. This paper explores various types of interference and noise, including natural, man-made, and deliberate sources, as well as their primary causes, such as frequency overlap, multipath propagation, and intermodulation.

To mitigate these challenges, several techniques are examined, including frequency management, advanced filtering methods, shielding, and antenna design optimization. Emerging technologies, such as cognitive radio, Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems, and beamforming, are also discussed for their potential to dynamically address interference in real-time. Additionally, the role of regulatory bodies and industry standards in managing the RF spectrum is highlighted.
