The Effects of MIMO Antenna System Parameters and Carrier Frequency on Active Control Suppression of EM Fields

Abstract

In this paper we propose a new approach employing adaptive active control algorithms combined with a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna system to suppress the electromagnetic field at a certain volume in space (e.g., at the human head). We will investigate the effects of the size and number of MIMO antenna elements on the system performance and test the algorithms at different carrier frequencies (e.g., GSM bands and UMTS).
