An experiment study of electromagnetic field distribution over 2D communication system

This paper presents a novel two-dimensional communication system (2DCS), in which a 2D sheet allows the coupler-attached devices that are placed on the surface of the 2D sheet to provide data transmission and power supply concurrently. The electromagnetic waves that propagate inside the 2D sheet can produce a standing wave, which is the resultant of the reflected waves and the original wave. The anti-reflection edge is mounted at the sides of the 2D sheet in order to diminish the impact of the standing wave. In this paper, we investigate the electromagnetic field characteristics of the 2D sheet, which is conjoined with the 3-side and 4-side of anti-reflection edge. Measurement results reveal that the average magnetic field strength decreases about -8 dB and -17 dB for the 3-side and 4-side of anti-reflection edge, respectively.
