Air travel will get a facelift in the near future thanks to modern technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT) and 5G. Smart airports will improve passengers’ travel experiences and make operations
Multi-band beamforming antennas play an increasing role in sorting our ever-growing wireless traffic. At the heart of these antennas, beamformer integrated circuits (ICs) drive multiple transmit/recei
Transmission lines, like coaxial cables or twisted pairs, play an integral role in electrical engineering, carrying information and power for many applications. Transmission lines are distributed elem
In my last blog, I talked about types of spectrum analyzers, frequency and time domain basics, and a few applications of spectrum analyzers. In this blog, I’ll go over the block diagram of a spectrum
The local oscillator (LO) is a major building block of every radio frequency (RF) front-end. LO is responsible, with the mixer, for the up and down-conversion of a specific channel. In a signal analyz
Spectrum Analysis Basics, Part 1 – What is a spectrum analyzer? The concept of spectrum analysis is a little daunting. From simple amplitude and frequency measurements to complex, application-specific
Exponential growth in demand for faster data rate applications has triggered the need for technologies capable of wide signal bandwidth at higher frequencies. Unfortunately, wider bandwidths also gath
