The interconnected wireless world, a major challenge for EM-coexistence

The number of wireless devices is growing rapidly, and are also deployed in many environments, which is posing new challenges for EMC engineers. This paper discusses the trends and impact, and describes the Electro-Magnetic Diversity as a concept for achieving EM coexistence. The reason for publishing, and the impact of, the new European Radio equipment Directive is discussed. Generic measures to achieve the EM Compatibility, i.e. the required selectivity and low unwanted emission, are given.
