Radiofrequency Interference

Radiofrequency Interference (RFI) occurs when unwanted radio signals disrupt the normal operation of electronic devices that use radio waves for communication or functioning. This interference can originate from various sources like electronic equipment, wireless devices, or natural phenomena, and can cause disruptions such as poor audio or video quality, loss of signals, or device malfunctions. Essentially, RFI is like static or noise that overlaps with legitimate signals, making it difficult for devices to communicate clearly. Managing RFI involves using shielding, filtering, or careful placement of equipment to minimize disruptions and ensure reliable device operation.
