A Simple and Efficient Procedure for Identifying the Compressing Stage in Two-Stage Amplifiers

We propose a fast and simple method to accurately determine the compressing stage in a two-stage amplifier system based on reverse intermodulation and hot S-parameter measurements. The method uses no specialized hardware and needs little reconfiguration, simplifying the measurements. We demonstrate its validity over a broad range of amplifiers...

Inkjet printed paper based frequency selective surfaces and skin mounted RFID tags: The interrelation between silver nanoparticle ink, paper substrate and low temperature sintering technique

Inkjet printing of functional frequency selective surfaces (FSS) and radio frequency identification (RFID) tags on commercial paper substrates using silver nanoparticle inks sintered using low temperature thermal, plasma and photonic techniques is reported. Printed and sintered FSS devices demonstrate performances which achieve wireless...

Phased arrays of rectangular apertures on conformal cylindrical surfaces: A multimode equivalent network approach

In this paper, we present an efficient integral equation formulation based on a multimode equivalent network (MEN) approach for the analysis of phased arrays on cylindrical surfaces using open-ended waveguide radiators. In addition to theory, experimental data are also presented showing very good agreement with simulated results. © 2004 IEEE.
