Why can I never connect to the internet during lunch time everyday? Study of Interference by MicroWave Ovens (MWO)
Experimental Analysis of MWO Signal • The Residential MWO signal is synchronized with the 60 Hz AC line cycle, and it radiates in the positive half cycle only. • The MWO signal has the main characteristics: • An AM-FM signal that is radiated for about 5-6 ms. • Transient signals before and after FM signal (~1ms). “On” cycle of MWO
Power Spectral Density of MWO Signal • Most power is concentrated over the narrow frequency range (15 MHz) swept by AM-FM signal. • There is power scattered over entire ISM band. • The wideband power is due to transients.

Interference Mitigation Technique • Data transmission using 802.11 channel 1 (shaded areas are transient locations)
