Wireless communication inside shielded envelope

摘要

A system and method limit transmission of wireless electromagnetic device radiation through the windows of a mobile platform outer envelope. The mobile platform includes at least one window on an outer envelope. A shielding layer is applied to the window and electrically grounded to the outer envelope. At least one transceiver hub is located within the mobile platform receiving and/or transmitting the electromagnetic device radiation. An off-board communication device wirelessly communicates with the transceiver hub. The shielding layer attenuates a portion of the radiation contacting the window. Only a communication path between the transceiver hub and the off-board communication device is therefore operable. Wireless device transmission and/or reception via a window path is effectively blocked by the shielding layer, decreasing the potential for disruption to mobile platform electrical systems and interfering with ground-based communication systems.
