Beschreibung

283 pages. With diagrams. Stamped Damaged on verso title page. Small dent in fore edge back cover. Otherwise minor shelfwear only and in new condition. ; Hardcover; Quarto; With increasingly low-cost and power-efficient RF electronics demanded by today's wireless communication systems, it is essential to keep up to speed with new developments. This book presents key advances in the field that you need to know about and emerging patterns in large-signal measurement techniques, modeling and nonlinear circuit design theory supported by practical examples. Topics covered include: __ Novel large-signal measurement techniques that have become available with the introduction of nonlinear vector network analyzers (NVNA) , such as the LSNA, PNA-X and SWAP __ Direct extraction of device models from large-signal RF dynamic loadlines __ Characterization of memory effects (self-heating, traps) with pulsed RF measurements __ Interactive design of power-efficient amplifiers (PA) and oscillators using ultra-fast multi-harmonic active load-pull __ Volterra and poly-harmonic distortion (X-parameters) behavioral modeling __ Oscillator phase noise theory __ Balancing, modeling and poly-harmonic linearization of broadband RFIC modulators __ Development of a frequency selective predistorter to linearize PAs.

Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe:

With increasingly low-cost and power-efficient RF electronics demanded by today's wireless communication systems, this book brings you up to speed with key developments in the field. It presents the use of nonlinear vector network analyzers (NVNA) for characterization, modeling, design and linearization, with practical design examples provided throughout to support the theory.
