An antenna calibration is a verification of performance and the measurement of the antenna's properties. Much of the success or failure of EMC testing depends on the performance of a calibrated antenna. Learn how to determine the proper antenna calibration interval with this application note.
Tuners support both stirred and stepped operation. They can be sized to match any chamber dimensions and crafted from any of several RF energy-reflective materials.
TEN TECH AERO switched to Altair SimLab to improve speed and accuracy, and reduce processing time. They were able to convert models in 10-20 minutes that would have taken hours with other tools, and saw a 2-3 times time savings while using Altair Optistruct®.
It is a universal experience of modern life: You’re in an area of sufficient cellular signal, but the internet connection is degraded. A Bluetooth link is dropped even though the device battery is fully charged. The touchscreen of a device is unresponsive for no apparent reason.
Application Note |
By Doug Jorgesen,Marki Microwave
The proper way to apply a DC current to the mixer is through a bias tee, allowing the high-frequency output from the mixer to absorb rather than reflect back into the mixer, potentially causing ripple or other degradation to the performance of the IQ mixer as a vector modulator.
The Directed Energy Symposium will serve as a forum to promote discussions on the most recent developments of directed energy (DE) systems and technologies in support of U.S. national security and civil application. Esteemed leaders within the U.S. government, military services, DoD, academia, and research labs will convene to share latest projects, foster open communication, and support the next generation of directed energy technologies.
Must-See Products At IEEE EMC+SIPI Annual Symposia
The R&S EPL1000 is the perfect device for quick, precise, and compliant EMI measurements up to 30 MHz. With added features of a spectrum analyzer and a signal and tracking generator, it is ideal for various lab applications.
There are many types of RF and Microwave amplifiers available on the market today. They come in many form factors, technology types and bias classes which can make choosing the correct amplifier that meets your application requirements difficult.
The PTXM1000 microwave power module integrates a “super mini” travelling wave tube (TWT), linearizer and an optimized high-density switch mode power supply to produce a single “drop-in” microwave amplifier block for any CW application requiring the highest power linear performance.
Keysight’s Randy Becker provides a demonstration of Keysight's NTN testbed applying timing and Doppler pre-compensation, using extended hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ), and measuring device-under-test block error ratio (BLER) and throughput.
Model 50PA-1250-XX is a 19-inch rack mount attenuator assembly containing 50-ohm solid-state step attenuators. The number of attenuators can be selected from nine to 16 attenuators.
An excellent alternative to traveling wave tube amplifiers, Qorvo's Spatium™ QPB2731N is a solid-state, spatial combining amplifier with an operating range of 27.5 - 31 GHz while achieving greater than 49 dBm of instantaneous linear power.
The SPDT externally terminated RF switch with 2.92 mm female connectors is available in the failsafe, latching, or momentary (normally open) configuration.
The MPA1139 high-power amplifier is a versatile device that utilizes a Class A/AB linear design, ensuring high-quality signal amplification while minimizing distortion.
