Abstract
A low-cost, high-performance vector network analyzer approach for pulsed operation is presented. The proposed setup offers a very high dynamic range which is independent of the measurement pulse width or duty cycle. As result, the presented network analyzer configuration is perfectly suited for the isothermal characterization of RF semiconductor devices and outperforms current commercially available solutions for this purpose in dynamic range and measurement speed.
