Amplifiers To Support SDRs

With the help of software-based transceiver architectures, military tactical radios are taking advantage of faster, more complex waveforms with new radios supporting modern modulations and communications protocols. 

Optimization Of 5G Infrastructure Deployment Through Machine Learning

The application of machine learning for optimal deployment of 5G infrastructure, such as the orientation of the antenna that helps achieve the best coverage, is investigated in this paper.

High-Voltage Driver Circuit For High-Power PIN Diode Switches

The Skyworks high-voltage driver circuit for high-power PIN diode switches is a CMOS/TTL compatible, DC coupled, high-speed PIN diode bias controller. This driver is designed to provide forward currents up to 200 mA for each diode, and 48 V reverse bias. It is designed for SPDT switches operating with a CW input power up to 160 W, while utilizing fast switching NPN/MOSFET transistors.
