The Z-Power style resistor gives a better frequency response with similar thermal properties in the same size package. This technology offers designers exciting combinations with ideal thickness, package, aspect ratio and terminal geometry selections. Learn more about the advantages to both RF performance and power handling with Z-Power configured components.

Smartphone manufacturers are introducing new full-screen handsets with an 18:9 screen aspect ratio. The form factor impacts antenna performance: reducing antenna space, shorter battery life, connectivity problems and lower data rates. Increased performance is required throughout the RF front-end, compensating for antenna impacts, maintain total radiated power and Rx sensitivity.

Techniques for accurate high power RF measurement in excess of 10W. A variety of methods will be considered including RF watt-meters, directional power sensors, directional coupler assemblies and flow calorimeters. The relative uncertainties, advantages and limitations will be considered to match the measurement to the user’s application.

Learn more on continuous waveform trends designed for specific needs, and application differences of continuous wave radar vs. pulse radar systems.

This eBook is a compilation of recent articles published by Microwave Journal on mmWave technology, automotive radar sensor trends and innovation, choosing the right PCB materials and configurations for high frequency automotive radars, the future of automotive radar testing and interference issues that need to be addressed.

An RF link budget is used to account for all the gains and losses in a telecommunication system — from the transmitter, through the medium (free space, cable, waveguide, fiber, and more), to the receiver. By accounting for the attenuation of the transmitted signal as it propagates through the communication channel, system designers can determine the required signal strength and antenna gain necessary to overcome all feedline and miscellaneous losses in order to ensure an appropriate quality of signal for successful data transmission.
