Abstract

A device for locally shielding or blocking a user from close proximity electromagnetic fields emitted by a wireless transmit/receive electronic equipment antenna 22 such as a cellular telephone. The device includes a wearable garments such as a baseball cap 10, electronic carrying pouch 110, fan 210, 250, 410, eyeglass 610, or screens, joined with having EMI/RFI material properties that is specifically worn by the user or placed between the user and the electromagnetic field emanating wireless antenna source 22. It serves to provide as a electromagnetic field shield, either reflective, absorptive, or dissipative behavior in nature, from an direct line-of-sight electromagnetic field radiating from a wireless device antenna 22. The effective shielding area is determined by the shielding device dimensions, the direct line-of-sight electromagnetic field signal antenna transmission behavior and the placement of the shielding device located between the user local human body sensitive tissue area and the wireless transmit/receive electronic equipment antenna 22, as solutions for opened-form design method shielding which serves to minimize the shielding degradation effects and sensitivity interaction effects on normal non-blocked electromagnetic fields antenna signal transmission operation.

Dependent claims

A method of radiation shielding device rating in terms of shielding or blockage effectiveness in reducing the energy of radiated electromagnetic fields is referred to as radiation blockage factor RBF having to encompass teachings of the method by which RBF may be estimated is in modifying the transmission line method and circuit method from strict closed-form measuring standards to specifically represent for opened-form design method solutions as new use standards performance interpretation and introduce modified test representation procedures to include definitions of opened-form direct line-of-sight Fresnel zone blocking criteria with diffraction effects comprising of:

using the opened-form standard unit of RBF measurement is the decibel or dB, the decibel value is the ratio of two measurements of electromagnetic field ratio of two measurement of electromagnetic field strength taken before and after shielding is in place,
using an alternate opened-form standard unit of RBFmag measurement as is calculated in magnitude ratio,
using alternate nomenclatures for RBF device rating the shielding effectiveness, are radiation proof factor RPF and radiation shield factor RSF,
using an alternate opened-form standard unit of RPFmag measurement as is calculated in magnitude ratio, and
using an alternate opened-form standard unit of RSFmag measurement as is calculated in magnitude ratio,
whereby said device rating provide a quality figure-of-merit measure for the invention in either decibel or magnitude units of measurement.
