From typical metrology parameters for common wireless and microwave components to the implementation of measurement benches, this introduction to metrology contains all the key information on the subject. Using it, readers will be able to: • Interpret and measure most of the parameters described in a microwave component's datasheet • Understand the practical limitations and theoretical principles of instrument operation • Combine several instruments into measurement benches for measuring microwave and wireless quantities. Several practical examples are included, demonstrating how to measure intermodulation distortion, error vector magnitude, S-parameters and large signal waveforms. Each chapter then ends with a set of exercises, allowing readers to test their understanding of the material covered and making the book equally suited for course use and for self-study.

Annotation "Intermodulation Distortion in Microwave and Wireless Circuits presents the full range of distortion specs to help practitioners select the right telecommunications equipment for their needs. The book details numerous design methods for highly linear circuits that help ensure optimal linearity in small-signal and high-power amplifiers and mixers. Engineers find practical advice on modeling and computer-aided tools that guides them toward successful analysis and design. Moreover, the book offers guidance in the design of other highly linear circuits and systems related to microwave and wireless communications and it includes the most comprehensive treatment of the application of Volterra methods in the technical literature."--BOOK JACKET.
