Text of the note
Show as plain text (Turkish; formulas and drawings are not included)
_T=0,5 → microstrip antenna efficiency
G_T=11 dB → antenna gain
P_in=40 W (input power before antenna)
Design Architecture of Receivers
Band → frequency allocated for specific application
Off-chip filter → eğer filtrenin keskin olmasını istersek
Narrowband sharp roll-off filter is not possible
Uplink band & channels.
Downlink band & channels
1- Tunable IF Filter, constant LO
2 → Constant IF Filter, Tunable LO
High side injection
Low side injection
High-side Injection
Image Frequency: Hayal Frekans
1) ω_LO far from ω_RF and high ω_IF
2) ω_LO close to ω_RF and low ω_IF
Dual Conversion Receiver
