TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

Harmonic Measurement For IEC 61000-4-3 And Other Radiated Immunity Standards
Amplifiers exhibiting significant harmonic distortion in immunity test systems can exhibit broadband characteristics that result in measurement uncertainty and unacceptable errors. This app note addresses acceptable harmonic measurement standards and other radiated immunity standards.
Ensuring Test Site Compliance for Radiated Emissions With Normalized Site Attenuation
This application note provides a synopsis of Normalized Site Attenuation (NSA) and Reference Site Method measurements which indicate a challenging but important aspect of radiated emissions measurements on an OATS, SAC, or FAR.
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.
S-Parameters For High-frequency Circuit Simulations
Understanding the meaning of S-parameters, how they are measured, and their limitations can lead to more meaningful RF- and microwave-frequency simulations.
Wi-Fi Performance In A House With Two Routers
Wireless InSite’s Communication System Analyzer provides capabilities for assessing the performance of LTE, WiMAX, 802.11n, and 802.11ac systems. This example investigates WiFi throughput coverage in a house provided by 802.11ac routers operating at 5 GHz using an 80 MHz bandwidth.
