TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

• What Is Pulse Shaping?

  In this industry briefing,George Bollendorf explains a new approach to fix fidelity issues caused by the transmitting amplifier that matches input pulse signal shape, minimizes droop, overshoot, ringing, and rise and fall times.

• R&S®FSWP And The Validity Of Positive Phase Noise Values

  This white paper reviews the classical spectrum analyzer measurement of L(f) and its shortcomings. It also discusses how modern phase noise test sets measure phase noise and avoid the limitations imposed by direct spectrum measurements, especially with the use of the R&S®FSWP.

• Reduce Risk With A Better Measurement Process

  Measurement risk is the probability of making an incorrect decision. Many quality standards require calibration to reduce measurement risk. This white paper explores calibration, how it mitigates risk, as well as different calibration deliverables that can reduce testing costs.

• 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.

• How To Perform A Radiated Emissions Measurement

  Explore the intricacies of setting up radiated emissions testing with this guide, covering everything from antenna placement and polarization to accurate frequency selection and signal measurement.
