Caracterización, RF/Microondas, scattering, analizador vectorial de redes.Resumen
El artículo presenta una estrategia para la medición y caracterización de circuitos de Radio Frecuencia y microondas (RF/Microondas), aplicados a sistemas modernos de comunicaciones inalámbricas, por medio del diseño de un software que permite capturar y controlar, de manera remota, los datos obtenidos en los equipos de medición utilizados –en este caso, un analizador vectorial de redes R&S ZVA8 y un multímetro digital DM3061–. Como evidencia, se presenta el resultado de esta estrategia a partir de la caracterización de un amplificador de potencia [PA] altamente eficiente, a una frecuencia de prueba de 2.4 GHz.
