RF Measurements : VNA Mixer Measurement Virtual Course

Subject

This virtual course is an introduction to mixer measurements with a vector network analyzer (VNA). Participants learn about different mixer measurements such as scalar, vector and mixer group delay measurements. The virtual course also covers the VNA calibration for mixer measurements. In addition to the theoretical aspects, there will be a live demonstration of setting up, calibrating and performing different mixer measurements.
