Distortion comes in two basic classes: Linear distortion, which is not an oxymoron; and nonlinear distortion, which includes all other distortions except noise. Noise is quite another matter and is ...

Passive intermodulation (PIM) distortion arises when non‐linearities and imperfections within electrical connectors and transmission lines cause the intermodulation of signals, leading to spurious ...

Unless you are a hermit or a Stylite, robust interaction with your neighbors is usually a good thing. Of course, this is not the case with broadcast transmitters, where living in isolation is usually ...

Harmonic and intermodulation distortion are discussed, and the reasons given for the failure of the former on disc recording. An apparatus for producing two tones and an analysing equipment for the ...

Intermodulation distortion is one of the most interesting signal analyzer measurements. Often abbreviated IMD, it is an important metric of linearity for a wide range of RF and microwave components.

This software product aids in calculating, predicting and identifying intermodulation interference of wireless devices. The PC-based product refines and simplifies the process of identifying ...

In the first part of this series we discussed pedal effect circuit design and in the second part we looked at a distortion pedal circuit with low power and soft clipping. Now we will discuss a rather ...

When choosing an RF instrument, it’s easy to get lost in some of the many specifications that vendors use to characterize an instrument’s performance. Moreover, in a world where wireless technologies ...
