Ray-Optical Modeling Of Wireless Coverage Enhancement Using Engineered Electromagnetic Surfaces
In this paper, results are presented of propagation experiments conducted to verify the accuracy of a novel ray-optical scattering model for EES.
Testing For Coexistence In Crowded And Contested RF Environments
In this paper, we review some of the key research, development, test and evaluation (RDT&E) challenges that arise when developing and deploying systems that need to operate in congested and/or contested RF environments.
Characterization Of An Amplifier With The Combination Of Network And Spectrum Analysis
The general characterization of complex DUTs such as amplifiers requires the measurement of several parameters. Thanks to its versatility, the R&S^®ZNL is an economic solution that can characterize a variety of DUTs both via network analysis and spectrum analysis.
De-Embedding Test Fixtures For High-Speed Digital Applications
Test fixtures are commonly used in high-speed digital measurement to connect devices to measurement equipment. Characterization and analysis in time and frequency domains help remove the influence of these fixtures.
Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) Explained
Explore the evolution of VSWR from its humble beginnings in telegraph lines to its vital role in modern RF engineering, illuminating its practical applications and underlying principles.
