ID Number 738
Study Type Engineering & Physics
Model 2450 MHz (WiFi) transmitter exposure to medical devices and analysis of electromagnetic interference
Details

Medical Devices were tested using 2450 MHz LANaccess point transmitter operating at 500 milliwatts using the ANSI C63.18 ad hoc test protocol. Some EMI was observed in a physiological monitor, an ultrasound device, and an infusion pump. The authors suggest appropriate EMC characterization, management, and minimal seperation distances when employing hospilat 2.4 GHz LAN systems.
