Localization of Electromagnetic Interference Sources Using a Time-Reversal Cavity

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Hamidreza Karami, Amirhossein Mostajabi

In this article, we propose and implement a novel technique to locate electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources using the concept of time-reversal (TR) cavity. We show in an intuitive manner that reflections from the surfaces of a cavity can emulate an in ...
