System Phase Noise Calculation & Measurement Techniques
|
|
Joseph D. DiBona, Senior Engineer Spectrum Microwave
2009
|
|
When calculating the phase noise of a system, there are many considerations. The following illustrates phase noise calculations of a system and the effects of correlated components verses uncorrelated components. Following these calculations there is an illustration showing consideration of absolute power levels and how they affect the phase noise of a system...

T3 Mixers Primer - For Intermodulation distortion suppression
|
|
By Ferenc Marki & Christopher Marki, Ph.D. from Marki Microwave
2009
|
|
Intermodulation distortion suppression is a critical issue in modern military and commercial RF/Microwave systems operating on digital modulation formats which are extremely sensitive to distortion. To meet this hight standards Marki Microwave has developed the Two-Tone-Terminator (T3) mixer family, this primer describes the key operating principles of the T3 mix..

CMOS RF down-conversion mixer design for low-power wireless communications
|
|
University of Cadi Avvad
2008
|
This paper aims discusses the design of a low-power single-balanced mixer for down-conversion in wireless RF receivers operating at 1.9 GHz on a 0.18um CMOS Process. The Mixer has a conversion gain of 7 dB, power consumption of 3.86 mW and a Supply voltage of 1.8 V.
