3.1.6 RF Shield

An RF shield is used on some of the TI reference designs to reduce the radiation of spurious signals, in particular the third harmonic radiated power levels. TI recommends to have footprint for a shield in the design, especially for 20dBm devices. If the spurious emissions are within the expected range without the shield, then the shield can be set to Do Not Mount (DNM).
