Although systems, such as radar and electronicwarfare (EW) platforms, are comprehensive collections of analog, digital, and RF circuits and devices, it is often the technology in a part as small as a transistor that can have an enormous impact on the overall performance of a military electronics system. For... June 2008 [Book Review] Microwave System Design Tools and EW Applications Electronic warfare (EW) system design involves both analog and digital electronics often operating across broad bandwidths, including millimeter- wave and optical frequencies. Design of the RF and microwave portions of these systems involves a strong understanding of how individual components perform and how they interact as part of analog signal-processing chains. Peter East’s Microwave System Design Tools and EW Applications provides an excellent introduction to... June 2008 [Test & Measurement] Fast Meters Scale Microwave Power Peaks Power measurements are critical for characterizing modern high-frequency systems and their components. With the growing use of pulsed and pseudorandom signals in both commercial communications and military radar systems, power meters capable of peak and continuous-wave (CW) measurements are more valuable than ever The new 4540 series of power meters from Boonton Electronics (www.boonton.com) is such an... June 2008 [Components] Cables And Connectors Deliver Robust Signals Cables and connectors are among the most overlooked components in any high-frequency system. Since they must deliver signals from one point to the next, without altering those signals, these transmission-line components are generally only noticed when they fail. In spite of the low profile, however, manufacturers continue to invest in these components in the quest of improved performance and reliability, to ensure that their cables and connectors ... June 2008 [Test & Measurement] Compact Oscilloscopes Check Embedded Systems Embedded systems, complete with memory, microcontrollers, and digital signal processing (DSP), can be found in the majority of modern electronic equipment, be it for commercial, industrial, or military applications. Checking the serial communications buses in these systems can be challenging without the right tools. Fortunately, the DPO3000 Digital Phosphor Oscilloscopes (DPOs) from Tektronix (... June 2008 [Test & Measurement] Microwave VNAs Add Nonlinear Network Analysis A dverse effects of nonlinear behavior in active and passive high-frequency components can disrupt communications systems. As a result, it is desirable to understand such behavior, which requires the right test equipment. To help, Agilent Technologies (www.agilent.com) has announced nonlinear vector network analyzer (NVNA) capability for its PNA-X series of microwave vector network analyzers (VNAs). ...
