A method for controlling noise on an electronic device may include determining that a measured characteristic, associated with an antenna in a first configuration and included on the electronic device, violates a predetermined threshold. The method may also include identifying an aggressor in a second configuration, which may be a component on the electronic device. The aggressor may emit electromagnetic (EM) radiation that causes the measured characteristic to violate the predetermined threshold. One or more stimuli may be determined based on the first and/or second configurations that would cause the measured characteristic to no longer violate the predetermined threshold. One or more stimuli may be applied to the antenna and/or the aggressor, causing the measured characteristic to no longer violate the predetermined threshold.

Materials and methods for mitigating passive intermodulation. A membrane for reducing passive intermodulation includes a first polymeric layer, a second polymeric layer, and a continuous metal layer encapsulated between the first and second polymeric layers. A self-adhesive radio frequency barrier tape includes a waterproof polymeric top layer, a metal-containing layer adhered by an adhesive layer to the polymeric top layer, a pressure sensitive adhesive layer adhered to the metal-containing layer, and a release liner on a bottom surface of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer.

Systems and methods model earth stations and other captive terrestrial sites as simulated cell sites in a radio access network (RAN) to identify potential cellular network interferers with the earth stations. A computing device selects an earth station within a geographic area of a RAN segment and model the earth station as a cell within the RAN segment, wherein the modeling creates a simulated earth station cell. The computing device obtains sector carrier data for cells in the RAN segment and scores, based on the sector carrier data, neighboring cells to the simulated earth station cell. The scoring indicates a level of potential interference of the neighboring cells with the earth station based on geo-spatial relevance. The computing device identifies projected mobility interference in neighboring cells to the earth station and provides prioritization recommendations for interference mitigation for the earth station based on the scoring and the identifying.
