Increased Efficiency and Flexibility in EMC Testing with Smart Broadband Amplifiers
SPEAKER:
Paul Denisowski
Product Management Engineer, Rohde & Schwarz USA Inc.

Abstract: There have been many changes over the years in how RF amplifiers are constructed. The basic amplifier design and mode of operation have however remained relatively unchanged until recently.  This webinar will walk you through a new class of “smart amplifiers” that have enabled substantial improvements in terms of both flexibility and efficiency. We will walk you through key parameters in the design and use of broadband amplifiers for EMC testing, and how advances made help increase efficiency. You will learn how "smart" amplifiers allow user-defined, dynamic, and simultaneous variation of the core amplifier parameters, such as operating class and VSWR, during operation. This enables performance optimization for an extremely wide range of applications. The webinar will be followed with a live question and answer session.

Understanding Pre-Selection
in EMI Testing
SPEAKER:
Scott Niemiec
Applications Engineer, Rohde & Schwarz USA Inc.

Abstract: Pre-selection is one of the most important, but also one of the least understood topics in modern EMI testing. This webinar provides an introduction to the fundamental technical concepts behind pre-selection as well as an explanation of why pre-selection has become essential for ensuring accurate and reproducible results, particularly in the case of pulsed signals. In addition to explaining the motivation behind pre-selection and how pre-selection is implemented in instrumentation, this webinar also uses actual real-world examples to illustrate the advantages of pre-selection in a wide variety of EMI testing scenarios. The webinar will be followed with a live question and answer session.
