Far Field Noise Countermeasures | Functional Materials(jump)

Maxell provides the electromagnetic wave absorbers that are compatible with the millimeter-wave band for ADAS radar and 5G communication, and even terahertz wave band. We mainly provide electromagnetic wave absorbers suitable for the far field use.

【LI Series】Supports ADAS radar band (77GHz). Optimal for controlling spatial noise with little dependence on the electromagnetic wave absorption characteristics depending on the angle of incidence.

【PI Series】Supports ADAS radar band (77GHz). There is little dependence of the electromagnetic wave absorption characteristics depending on the angle of incidence. Provided as a molding material (Pellets) that can be injection molded.

【PW Series】Supports ADAS radar band (77GHz). Supports a wide millimeter-wave frequency band. Provided as a molding material (Pellets) that can be injection molded.

【LI Series】77GHz Compatible Electromagnetic Wave Absorber Rubber Sheet

This rubber sheet which exhibits excellent absorption characteristics in 77GHz band used by the ADAS millimeter wave radar.
Since the dispersed magnetic material absorbs radio waves, it has excellent oblique incidence characteristics.

  • The magnetic resonance effect by magnetic iron oxide enables conversion of EMW in the millimeter-wave band into heat.
  • Target frequency for absorption is adjustable by design change of materials.
  • Attenuation characteristic is rather stable against incidence angle changes of wave.
  • Silicone rubber base with flexibility Additional adhesive layer is possible which is easy to attach on the target.
