Abstract

SummaryThis paper presents a wireless local area network (WLAN) spectrum control system that uses active frequency selective shielding walls to selectively reduce or pass WLAN signals in the 5 GHz band indoors. The proposed system utilizes a well‐known active frequency selective structure based on a rectangular loop with PIN diodes and is thus capable of either reducing or passing the WLAN frequency by using the on/off switching of the PIN diode based on the measured electric field strength in indoor. We designed and simulated the proposed active frequency selective shielding wallpaper by using commercial electromagnetic simulation software and confirmed that the proposed structure can reduce the WLAN signal by switching the PIN diode by applying the manufactured prototype on the exterior of an experimental apparatus containing a WLAN receiver antenna that is capable of measuring the received electric field strength. Extension of the results presented herein can be applied to reduce the wireless signal to enhance the spectrum efficiency of an indoor space.
