Probably not. If it was a direct hit to the antenna the lightening would probably just jump from the radio to the nearest ground (earth). The spark will have travelled several hundred metres from a storm cloud to the antenna, a few more metres of air are unlikely to stop it. Even if it did not...
If you read section 5.3.6 and 5.3.7 it explains how to use external clock signals and the internal clock circuits.
External clocks are used when better stability is needed or to synchronise with another system
Conservation of energy law applies, so yes you are right.
If it is a real antenna and real world losses are included then the antenna can have a lower gain than isotropic.
S-parameters are measured with the device with a 50 ohm source and load. The data sheet gives the performance with matching circuits between the device and 50 ohms, hence the increased gain.
That is because that is the order you need to be able to meet your requirements.
The filters it designs should be OK. Be sure to check the Compensate for GBW box for component values, and if the requirement is critical simulate it in SPICE with the component tolerances. High order filters can be...
Circuit is incorrect.
The series tank does not resonate at 7MHz and is in the wrong place.
Google "Clapp oscillator circuit". There are plenty of examples and design formulae to guide you.
Measure the drift over the operating temperature range and then feed an opposing temperature varying current into the mixers. We got to about +/-250uV over -45 to +85, but it took some time to get it right. Each unit had ot be individually compensated. This was in the days when high speed DSP...
This is a high level mixer, it needs at least +10dBm to work at all, and then its performance will be poor. All diode double balanced mixers need enough power to be able to fully turn on the diodes. In a low level mixer this is two diode junctions in series, in these high level mixers it can be...
Yes.
No. This is one of the conditions under which the IP3 was measured. 2 signals at nominal 13GHz at 0dBm each at the RF input.
1dB compression is +15dBm input with LO input power of 20dBm.
These levels should be OK for use as a phase detector. So long as you do not exceed the total maximum...
Yes, it should be assuming there is no common HF noise introduced into the amplifiers. well designed amplifier will be OK in this respect.
Using separate amplifiers is common practice in any array that needs beam steering RADAR, SOANR, and cellular phone base stations. The combiner loss is...
If the combiner is lossless then it makes no difference. The overall noise figure of the system will be limited by the combiner and cable loss in front of the LNA. If the LNA is mounted at the feed point of the antenna then the loss of the feeder and combiner will be eliminated. whether this...
