Currents Induced on Wired I.T. Networks by Randomly Distributed Mobile Phones - A Computational Study.

Abstract

The probability density and exceedance probability functions of the induced currents in a screened cable connecting two enclosures, resulting from the close. presence of single and multiple mobile phones working at 900 MHz, are investigated. The analysis of the problem is undertaken using the Method of Moments, but due to weak coupling, the impedance matrix was modified to reduce the memory and time requirements for the problem, to enable it to be executed multiple times. The empirical probability distribution functions (PDFs) and exceedance probabilities for the induced currents are presented. The form of the PDFs is seen to be quite well approximated by a log-normal distribution for a single source and by a Weibull distribution for multiple sources
