Beamforming using phased array antennas is a common technology for radar and electronic warfare in the aerospace and defense industry. In satellite communications and 5G NR, phased array beamforming is becoming a default concept. Get deep insights about beamforming with our solutions.

Read how the world’s second largest manufacturer of general public drone technology, Parrot Drones, used the StarLab in its product development phase which helped them meet all relevant testing and operational standards, and optimized the performance of its new products for localization, reliability and range.

This eBook covers many of the new software defined radio configurations and challenges being addressed by this new technology. Networked Spectrum Analyzers with GPS are discussed by ThinkRF followed by an article on Optimizing Digital Receivers for Signal Monitoring Platforms. Other articles cover Automating Microwave Measurements with Software Defined Synthetic Instrumentation, design aspects of developing software defined radio with next generation signal partitioning, and DARPA’s Colosseum which is the world’s largest test bed developed to date for evaluating software defined radios.

Aperture tuning is essential in enabling smartphones to operate efficiently over increasing RF frequency bands and support transitions to 5G. Proper tuning enables antennas to operate efficiently on multiple bands and increases Tx and Rx performance. Implementing aperture tuning requires in-depth knowledge of how to apply the technology for smartphone application.

The challenges in testing EMI during early product cycle are multifold. In our free step-by-step guide, we break down the whole EMI design test process into “Locate”, “Capture”, and “Analyze”. With this guide, you are now able to discover and analyze EMI in a more systematic and methodical approach.

A phased-array antenna is made up of multiple individual radiating elements (antennas), each fed with an RF signal controlled through phase shifters in such a way that the radio waves from the separate antennas are added together to increase the radiation.

Modern wideband microwave systems often require a flat overall gain response with respect to frequency. Achieving this performance can be difficult, however, since most wideband microwave components exhibit a negative gain slope as the frequency increases.

Speed up development, verify best performance and start up series production with confidence. Doherty designs achieve high efficiency, greater linearity and increased output power. Get deep insight into your design with a dual-path, precisely synchronized source driving the Doherty amplifier and improve your yield.

Wireless communications technology has become a vital component of today’s information driven world. With so much reliance on it, it’s easy to forget how different the spectrum environment looked only a few decades ago. This shift has also pushed spectrum monitoring requirements well beyond what was previously the norm.

Power amplifiers (PAs) are responsible for increasing the strength of a signal with minimal added distortion. By providing enough signal strength to overcome over-the-air losses, PAs play a vital role in the RF/microwave front end of any communication system.
