Coexistence Evaluation

• The integration and coexistence of WWAN radios
  with other noisy electronics brings about new
  set of EMI considerations
• Using measurement techniques, Qualcomm antenna
  group has and continues to support the evaluation
  of the receiver desensitization of WWAN radios
  when integrated into noisy laptops and other host
  type devices.
