How to Reduce Power Amplifier ET/DPD Test Times

Applikationsberichte

As wireless service providers embrace broadband communication standards such as LTE-Advanced and IEEE 802.11ac, they demand device improvements - better linearity, bandwidth and power consumption needed to achieve Gb/s link-level throughput. The new communication formats provide for wider bandwidths - for example, LTE-Advanced supports up to 100 MHz bandwidth to reach 1 Gb/s (downlink) and 500 Mb/s (uplink) data rates and IEEE 802.11ac will support 80 MHz and 160 MHz bandwidths to achieve throughput of at least 1 Gb/s for multi-station and 500 Mb/s maximum for a single link.
