Dual-Functional Cross-Meandering Resonator for Power Frequency Electromagnetic Shielding and Wireless Sensing Communication.

The research on MEMS wireless sensing technology adapted to strong power frequency electromagnetic field environments is of great significance to our energy security, economic society, and even national security. Here, we propose a subwavelength cross-meandering resonator (0.49 × 0.49) to simultaneously achieve power frequency electromagnetic field shielding and wireless communication signal transmission. The element size of the resonator is only /11, which is much smaller than that of previous works. In the resonator, a resonance mode with the significant near-field enhancement effect (about 180 times that at = 1 GHz) is supported. Based on the self-made shielding box experimental setup, the measured shielding effectiveness of the resonator sample can reach more than 33 dB. Moreover, by integrating the cross-meandering resonator with the MEMS sensor, a wireless communication signal can be successfully transmitted. A dual-function cross-meandering resonator integrated with sensors may find potential applications in many military and civilian industries associated with strong power frequency electromagnetic fields.
