Solution Overview

Problem

Full-screen mobile phones experience radio frequency interference due to the integration of the display screen's driver chip into the antenna clearance area, leading to low total isotropic sensitivity (TIS) of the antenna, particularly in game scenes where electromagnetic interference between the radio frequency system and the display screen affects communication stability.

Innovation Solution

An electronic device detects electromagnetic interference in game scenes and employs a real-time interference control strategy to reduce or eliminate the interference between the mobile industry processor interface (MIPI) of the display screen and the radio frequency system, by selecting target frequencies or switching communication channels to minimize interference.
