Tips/Techniques
Spectrum Depends Upon Frequency and Rise/Fall Time

Using Encoding Instead of Binary On/Off or OSK to Reduce EMI
This was used for ethernet. See somewhere in the beginning of the first edition (first 55 pages, I can't find the reference at the moment) of the Switch Book by Rich Seifert. There is an explanation of the types of ethernet signal encoding here (though it doesn't seem to mention emi) http://units.folder101.com/cisco/sem1/Notes/ch7-technologies/encoding.htm.
