This application note discusses WLAN standard IEEE 802.11n. It first describes the most important amendments to previous releases and the ambitious new measurement tasks. Then, it describes how to deal with these tasks using Rohde & Schwarz instruments.
Once the exclusive realm of scientific research and military use, wireless systems operating in the upper millimeter wave (MMW) regions are now providing cost-effective solutions for high-capacity commercial data transport needs. While MMW technology is nothing new, the growing volume of commercial use with associated economies of scale has significantly reduced system costs, making MMW systems more attractive to the general consumer.
This one page technical overview includes cut away descriptions of the mechanical engineering behind this innovative high-performance SMA. Additionally, performance curves are analyzed for typical VSWR through 20 GHz.
Amplifiers used in wireless infrastructure receiver applications have the key requirements of low noise, high linearity, and unconditional stability. In order to meet these needs, Skyworks has developed a new family of low noise amplifiers (LNAs) implemented in 0.5 μm enhancement mode (E-Mode) pHEMT.
There is a wide variety of coaxial connectors and cables available for use in the RF and Microwave spectrum. While often not much thought is given to these essential components, a misstep here can result in undesirable system degradation.
