RF Microwave Measurements – Tutorials

No matter whether you are a undergrad student, Ph.D. student… or even a Professor. We are all looking for in depth understanding of RF Microwave Measurements.

My priority is to educate and interact with people on the subject of RF Microwave Measurements. All tutorials offered in the RF Shop are just a subset of the topics covered by the RF Workshops that I offer. I’m looking forward receiving your feedback on that.

RF Microwave Measurements – why to follow?

As an enthusiastic Microwave Engineer, I’m looking forward getting in touch with globally active professionals and scientists from the RF and Microwave Measurements community. My passion on RF and Microwave Measurements comes from my background as a Microwave Engineer with a Ph.D on microwave circuit design and characterization techniques.

Stay tuned on my blog RF Microwave Measurements and get the latest news and updates. Educative material and tutorials will be added on a regular basis.

Having attended previous events of the EUMW I can state that it’s definitely a premium event and provides a great opportunity to stay in touch with the international research community. Participating at the knowledge exchange that takes place at such conferences is a great pleasure for me. My contribution to this year’s event will be for the European Microwave Integrated Circuit (EuMiC) conference.

The paper that I will present is entitled “Integrated RF transformer and power combiner design in 150nm CMOS process” and is scheduled for Session EuMIC01 – Modelling and Design of Active and Passive MMIC Components.

This work is a joint paper with the Institute for Electronics Engineering from the University of Erlangen-Nuremeberg. It is always a pleasure for me to collaborate with international researches in order to promote RF Microwave Measurements and design techniques.  I’m looking forward meeting you all in Rome, Italy Oct. 5-10 2014.

The RF Microwave Measurements tutorials are addressed to all individuals and professionals who want to get a comprehensive understanding on the characterization of RF Microwave circuits and devices. In this short tutorial we explain the basics of AC signal analysis and the Spectrum Analyzer equipment. Stay tuned on my YouTube channel for more material.

Are you facing challenges with Spectrum Analyzer Measurements? Do you want to get insight of the principles behind it? Take a look at the video tutorial…

Hera are some examples of questions that are covered in the video tutorial…

  • Time vs Frequency Domain – Oscilloscope vs Spectrum Analyzer?
  • How do you transform one domain into the other?
  • What is the architecture of a sweeping IF Spectrum Analyzer?
  • Is my Spectrum Analyzer capturing signals in real-time?

This tutorial is aiming to address some basic principles of RF Microwave Measurements. The tutorial is covering network analyzer theory, calibration, de-embedding and is a short preview of the  RF & Microwave Measurements Workshop. The major topics covered by the workshop are summarized below.

  • What is the internal architecture of a Vector Network Analyzer?
  • What are Scattering Parameters and can I use them for non-linear networks?
  • What exactly is a calibration routine and why do we need it?
  • How do you validate a calibration with a Network Analyzer?
  • How do you design the proper de-embedding structures for a PCB?

I hope you find this material interesting and I’m looking forward receiving your feedback on that. Feel free to sign-up for my Newsletter and get the latest news and updates on RF Microwave Measurements.

My trip to the San Francisco Bay Area is coming to an end and it is time to summarize the impressions so far. Attending the International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design (ISQED) was an overall nice experience and allowed me to reach out to other scientists active in the RF Microwave semiconductor business.

My contribution to this year’s event is entitled ‘RF Passive Device Modeling and Characterization in 65nm CMOS Technology’ and deals with the design and characterization of CMOS silicon integrated passives. The associated RF Microwave Measurements were an essential part of this publication.

Take a look at the Publications page of this blog for more details…

I also had the opportunity to visit the Stanford campus and take a tour at the facilities of the Electrical Engineering department. I must say that the campus itself is pretty impressive and provides the proper environment needed for high quality research.

This academic endeavor concluded with a visit to the equally impressive Berkeley campus and the Berkeley Wireless Research Center (BWRC), where I had the opportunity to spend some quality time with its researchers. Taking a tour at their microwave measurements laboratories was a nice experience and rounded up in the best possible way this week in the San Francisco Bay Area.
