Measuring RF Power Sensor Nonlinearity RF power sensor linearity is a commonly misunderstood topic. To obtain the most accurate power measurements, though, you need to understand what linearity is, ...

Modern communications systems rely on increased signal complexity to pack more data into each symbol transmitted. These complex signals can result in data dependent, high peak-to-average power ratios ...

Recently, a reader wrote to me seeking a copy of a paper on measuring the transient peak-to-average power ratio of DTV signals. So perhaps the topic of DTV signal power, which is so different from ...

Co-sponsored by Analog Devices and Richardson RFPD. This webcast will provide a step-by-step approach to designing RF power and return loss measurement systems. The webcast will focus on a number of ...

In August, this column took up some aspects of the measurement of DTV transmitter power output. You might wonder why I used the phrase "DTV transmitter power output" instead of "effective radiated ...
