A comparison between the impact of some signals on an MSK receiver

Transmitters and electrical equipment co-located to a radio system can, due to its radiated electromagnetic interference, cause serious degradation on the system performance. In real system design, when predicting the loss of performance, with a set of interferences of various signal types, there is a need of simple approximations that simultaneously describe the interferences in a proper manner. The focus of this paper is to show how different interfering signals will affect the performance of a radio system. Furthermore, the consequences of approximating these interference signals as additive white Gaussian noise are investigated
