Abstract
The effects of highly out-of-band electromagnetic interference (EMI) on an RF front-end are experimentally evaluated. Irradiation at 60 GHz with a moderate power is produced in the near-field owing to an open-ended WR15 waveguide fed by a Gunn diode. Surprisingly, we easily obtain the remote extinction of either the transmitter or the receiver of the front-end subject to EMI. The paper proposes a detailed analysis of both CW and chopped EMI by varying almost all experimental conditions, namely the polarization, target distance, and chopping mode. The latter shows most efficiency and evidences some long time scale dynamics in the induced perturbation.
