The present invention discloses systems and methods for use with vibration
sensing touch input devices that distinguish signals derived from
vibrations on a touch plate due to a touch input from signals derives
from electromagnetic interference. In the present invention, the phase
response of the signals due to electromagnetic interference can be
inverted relative to the phase response of the signals due to vibrations
in at least one signal transmission channel so that pair wise
cross-correlation of the various signal channels reveals the signals
caused by electromagnetic interference. Once electromagnetic interference
is identified, it can be ignored or otherwise appropriately taken into
account by the system.
