Several years ago, my team was given an assignment to measure RF radiation from Low Power CMOS ICs. In this article, I’ll describe the setup we designed and some of the problems we overcame to measure ...

Measuring RF Power Sensor Nonlinearity RF power sensor linearity is a commonly misunderstood topic. To obtain the most accurate power measurements, though, you need to understand what linearity is, ...

This article originally appeared in TV Technology. RF simulation software can provide a graphic display of RF fields; however, measuring them usually involves large anechoic chambers and structures on ...

The output power of an RF or microwave system is a key determinant of its performance. For this reason, signal power is measured at every stage – from design and prototyping to maintenance in the ...

Co-sponsored by Analog Devices and Richardson RFPD. This webcast will provide a step-by-step approach to designing RF power and return loss measurement systems. The webcast will focus on a number of ...

The FCC’s new RF Anechoic Measurement Chamber in Columbia, Md., is open for business. The facility cost about three-quarters of a million dollars. It gives the technical staff the ability to conduct ...

Anritsu Corporation will demonstrate its commitment to helping IoT device manufacturers strengthen the reliability of their ...

Recently, a reader wrote to me seeking a copy of a paper on measuring the transient peak-to-average power ratio of DTV signals. So perhaps the topic of DTV signal power, which is so different from ...

Frequency response measurements are a mainstay of RF communications design and generally considered a routine task—unless one of the device ports happens to be at I-Q baseband. Here, the convenience ...

The output power of an RF or microwave system is a key determinant of its performance. For this reason, signal power is measured at every stage of a system’s lifecycle from the design and prototyping ...

RF simulation software can provide a graphic display of RF fields; however, measuring them usually involves large anechoic chambers and structures on the order of the wavelength of the RF fields to be ...
