Often underestimated, RF field probes are critical to the implementation of a proper radiated immunity test system. All too often, system specifiers gloss over this essential element after having ...

As wireless technology advances, wireless test challenges multiply. This series of four articles covers performance testing of wireless devices and systems, including Wi-Fi, LTE, medical, smart grid ...

The power amplifier (PA) – as either a discrete component or part of an integrated front end module (FEM) – is one of the most integral RF integrated circuits (RFICs) in the modern radio. In this ...

These days we’re surrounded by high-speed electronics and it’s no small feat that they can all play nicely in near proximity to each other. We have RF emissions standards to thank, which ensure new ...

Calculations and tables often are used to determine whether a broadcast site is compliant with the RF radiation exposure regulations of the Federal Communications Commission. There are situations, ...

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. In the past few years, broadcast engineers and equipment manufacturers alike have had to re-learn ...

How to use DC-coupling for RF sampling ADCs. How to improve system linearity. Higher data rates in wireless communication systems and the use of narrower pulses in radars to resolve close targets ...

With the demand for more functionality at less cost, the RF testing landscape is evolving and morphing into a new frontier. In the cellular space, convergence of services continues to occur at an ...

As dependence on wireless devices that emit RF radiation continues to grow, so do the complexities of those devices and their international regulatory requirements. Specific absorption rate (SAR) ...
