Active Suppression of Electromagnetic Fields Using a MIMO Antenna System

Active suppression of noise and vibrations is a well established field of research with many applications in acoustic and mechanical industries. In this paper we test some of these active control methods in order to assess their validity and performance when applied to electromagnetic fields. The application that we evaluated is a model of a mobile telephone equipped with one ordinary transmitting antenna and two actuator-antennas which purpose is to cancel out the electromagnetic field at a specific point in space (e.g. at your head).
