 Measurement of Emissions from Microwave Ovens

During the course of our systems engineering work on 2.4 GHz spread spectrum telemetry systems, we discovered that microwave oven emissions can have a significant impact on the performance of the radio link.

In order to carry on our work we had to measure and characterise these emissions. The measurements showed that the oven leakage output follows a complex time/frequency trajectory whose characteristics may be dependent on the contents of the oven and the rotation of the turntable and/or the 'paddlewheel' found in many ovens. These measurements helped to design a communication signal structure which could more readily operate in the presence of oven interference.
