I have been asked whether or not the overhead power lines on a railway could interfere with the WAN radio on our mobile computers such as the MC65 for example. I've searched but cannot find anything, if you have any knowledge or experience with this kind of deployment I would be grateful if you could share. Thank You.
Overhead Power Lines on Railway |

In Europe (50Hz), given that WAN runs at 2.1 GHz: 2.1 E09 / 50 = 4.2 E07. So 2.1 GHz is the 25th octave of 50 Hz (roughly). Assuming a power loss of 6 dB per octave, this yields 150 dB loss. I guess this is quite negligeable. I hope this helps
