Abstract
An enclosure having two walls an attenuation distance apart from each other perpendicular to the plate of the enclosure. At least one of the walls is orbitally riveted or soldered to the plate of the enclosure. Having two walls an attenuation distance from each other is particularly advantageous for RF components. The two walls can be placed to surround the RF component to reduce the RF energy generated by the component that escapes in to the atmosphere, or the two walls can be placed to separate the RF component from other component in the same enclosure to reduce the interference of the RF component with the other components. Alternatively, the enclosure can have a single wall orbitally riveted to the plate of the enclosure with an RF gasket attached to the entire length of the wall to reduce the amount of RF energy that is able to pass around the wall.
