Summary:
Today both wired and wireless communications are part of everyone’s daily life. However, the state-of-the-art technology, 2D communication system is becoming one of the most-challenging technologies for the gigabit communication and the power supply simultaneously to devices. The 2D communication system (hereinafter we call it as 2DCS) consists of two components: a connector (coupler) and a 2D sheet. A connector that embedded into the device is used to extract the electromagnetic wave from the 2D sheet and also to inject the electromagnetic wave into the 2D sheet. The details of 2DCS can be found in [1, 2]. The electromagnetic wave that is confined into the thin 2D sheet still can be seeped out from the surface of the 2D sheet. Therefore, it is important to examine the effect and characteristic of electromagnetic field, which is reflected off the surface of 2D sheet experimentally, because it has been raised in view of human health. Furthermore, the radiation of electromagnetic wave can lead to the malfunctioning of other sensitive electrical and electronic equipment. In order to pursue these issues, an experiment is conducted inside an anechoic room to investigate the electromagnetic field distribution and strength of the 2D sheet. So far, we have conducted two experiments on the 2D sheet with and without the anti-reflection edged in [1] and [2], respectively. In this paper, we further examine the electromagnetic field characteristic when an object is placed on the top of the 2D sheet. The rest of this paper is organized as follow. Section 2 gives the experimental setup. Section 3 explains the measurement results and discussions. Finally, the last section concludes the paper.
