Magnetic field concentrator
First Claim
1. A shield for alleviating radiation from magnetic fields within a predetermined area, the shield comprising an inner loop member and outer loop member,the inner loop member having first and second parts, and being continuous between said first and second parts, the first part, being opposingly juxtaposed and spaced from said second part, the inner loop member encircling said predetermined area,the outer loop member having third and fourth parts, aligned with the first and second parts respectively, the outer loop member being continuous between said third and fourth parts, the third part being opposingly juxtaposed and spaced from said fourth part, the outer loop member encircling the inner loop member,and a first interconnecting part coupling said first and fourth parts and a second interconnecting part coupling said second and third parts.

Abstract
A concentrator adapted to concentrate signals for reception by a receiver, said concentrator comprising a conductive portion juxtaposed with said receiver, said concentrator being aligned so as to receive said signals and cause further signals to impinge on said receiver and thereby enhance reception of said signals by said receiver. Also disclosed is a shield for substantially eliminating magnetic field radiation from within a predetermined area, the field being diverted from the area via a conductive strip.
