    • Systems and methods are provided for calibrating a receiver in an RF system having a device under test (DUT) configured to receive at least one input signal and output at least one response signal. A method comprises setting a drive level of the RF system and making a pair of measurements at the drive level. Each of the measurements is made in a different gain state at a receiver. The method also comprises calculating a calibration factor for the receiver which is a ratio of the pair of measurements. These systems and methods can be used to calibrate receivers while preserving vector information and removing dynamic match effects.

    • The quality of the signal from a base station is measured and adjusted for distortion due to multipath and due to signals from neighboring co-channel base stations. The signal quality is measured conventionally by determining Rho or EVM and then Rho or EVM are adjusted. To adjust the signal the process includes the steps of: (a) sampling a received CDMA base station signal in a particular frequency channel, calculating the total received power to provide a reference value for subsequent normalization; (b) demodulating the received signal and constructing an ideal reference signal; (c) correlating between the ideal reference signal and received signal to determine a Rho value, or calculating the ratio of the difference between ideal and received signal to the ideal signal to obtain EVM; (d) performing a self cross correlation to separate signals from the sampled received signal on different delay paths, and determining a multipath power value x as a total power of signals on non-dominant ones of the delay paths; (e) performing a code correlation pilot scan of the sampled signal to determine strengths of signals from neighboring co-channel base stations; (f) summing the power levels of the neighboring co-channel base station signals to provide a total pilot pollution power y; and (g) calculating an adjusted Rho or EVM by removing x and y from the total received power.
    • 测量和调整来自基站的信号的质量,以及由于多路径引起的失真以及来自相邻同频道基站的信号。 传统上通过确定Rho或EVM测量信号质量,然后调整Rho或EVM。 为了调整信号,该过程包括以下步骤:(a)在特定频率信道中对接收到的CDMA基站信号进行采样,计算总接收功率以提供用于随后归一化的参考值; (b)解调接收信号并构建理想的参考信号; (c)将理想参考信号与接收信号相关以确定Rho值,或计算理想信号与接收信号之差与理想信号的比值以获得EVM; (d)执行自相互相关以在不同的延迟路径上分离来自采样的接收信号的信号,以及将多路径功率值x确定为非优先级延迟路径上的信号的总功率; (e)执行采样信号的码相关导频扫描以确定来自相邻同频道基站的信号的强度; (f)对相邻同频道基站信号的功率电平进行求和,以提供总导频污染功率y; 和(g)通过从总接收功率中移除x和y来计算经调整的Rho或EVM。

    • A spectrum analyzer is provided that includes components to achieve from below 9 kHz to above 20 GHz operation range while remaining hand-held. Components of the spectrum analyzer include an integrated precision stand-alone step attenuator that does not rely on printed circuit board (PCB) mounted circuit elements within the signal path. Further, a PIN diplexing switch separates signals into different base-band and highband paths. The baseband path includes a pre-amplifier for low frequency signals, while the higher frequency bands may not necessarily include a pre-amplifier. The baseband path further provides improved broadband termination of its 1st mixer IF port by incorporating a new quadrature-coupled directional (QCD) filter that includes a ring resonator. An inexpensive air dielectric multi-cavity baseband filter is also used to suppress 2nd mixer IF images. The highband path incorporates multi-throw MMIC PIN diode switches to selectively filter different bands of input signals. At least three total 1st mixers are used to increase operation bandwidth. A phase locked loop providing a 1st LO to the 1st mixers is created that uses a divide-by-two frequency divider in cascade with a sampler-type frequency downconverter. The output of the 1st LO is frequency doubled and filtered to increase the frequency range of the highband signal path.
    • 提供了一种频谱分析仪,其中包括从低于9 kHz到20 GHz以上工作范围内实现的组件,同时保持手持式。 频谱分析仪的组件包括集成精密独立步进衰减器,其不依赖于在信号路径内安装的印刷电路板(PCB)的电路元件。 此外,PIN双工切换将信号分离成不同的基带和高带路径。 基带路径包括用于低频信号的前置放大器,而较高频带可能不一定包括前置放大器。 基带通道还通过并入包括环形谐振器的新的正交耦合方向(QCD)滤波器,进一步提供其第一混频器IF端口的改进的宽带终端。 廉价的空气介质多腔基带滤波器也用于抑制第二混频器IF图像。 高频路径集成了多掷MMIC PIN二极管开关,以选择性地滤除不同频带的输入信号。 使用至少三个总共第一混频器来增加操作带宽。 创建了向第一混频器提供第一LO的锁相环,其使用与采样器型频率下变频器级联的二分频分频器。 第一LO的输出频率加倍并滤波,以增加高频信号路径的频率范围。

    • A high speed receiver is provided using two parallel processing paths to enable rapid variable gain control. The parallel processing paths include a first processing path using a high resolution Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), and a second processing path using a reduced DFT requiring fewer samples than the high resolution DFT. An initial sample of the data is processed using the second processing path with the reduced DFT by comparing a Fourier transform of the initial sample with predetermined threshold values. As a result of the comparison of the Fourier transform of the initial sample with the predetermined threshold values, a gain determination block determines whether a requirement exists for gain ranging. If gain ranging is needed, the gain of the data signal is adjusted and the gain ranging process repeats.
    • 使用两个并行处理路径提供高速接收机,以实现快速可变增益控制。 并行处理路径包括使用高分辨率离散傅里叶变换(DFT)的第一处理路径,以及使用与高分辨率DFT相比需要较少样本的减少的DFT的第二处理路径。 通过将初始样本的傅立叶变换与预定阈值进行比较,使用具有减小的DFT的第二处理路径来处理数据的初始样本。 作为初始样本的傅里叶变换与预定阈值的比较的结果,增益确定块确定是否存在增益测距的要求。 如果需要增益测距,则调整数据信号的增益,并重复增益测距过程。

    • A small light-weight battery operated calibrator device provides a precise sine wave output for use in calibration of test equipment, such as a RF Power Meter or a Spectrum Analyzer. The calibration device includes two power levels, one −40 dBm and one 0 dBm. The purpose of the two power levels is to obtain a slope and offset for correction of the RF power measuring device being calibrated. Operation indication LED lights are provided to indicate which of the two powers are in use, and if battery power is below acceptable levels. Miniature low power components including a crystal oscillator and a divide by 2 integrated circuit that generates a precise square wave and a low pass filter for converting the square wave into a precise sine wave allows the calibrator to be battery operated and stored as a calibration component.
