A variety of ultrawideband system designs — from carrierless, impulse UWB (I-UWB) to multicarrier (MC) UWB — have been pursued recently. I-UWB has several advantages, including simple RF circuitry, ...

DSOs (digital oscilloscopes) offer a great many advantages over their analog equivalents but as they say, “There’s no such thing as a free lunch.” Digital scopes sample, digitize, and store waveforms ...

When evaluating the dynamic performance of precision analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) using fast Fourier transform (FFT) analysis, coherent sampling typically is used to accurately measure the ...

Electrical engineering students rarely leave college with knowledge depth in both digital electronics and RF/microwave theory. The new engineer with digital design skills likely chose that path from a ...
