The analysis of electrical signals, otherwise known as signal analysis, is a fundamental challenge for virtually all electronic design engineers and scientists. While it provides valuable insight into ...

Like most modern radio communications devices, wireless local-area networks (WLANs), RFID tags, and 3G cellular systems rely on complex modulations that require specialized signal-analysis ...

The Hackaday Superconference is all about showcasing the hardware heroics of the Hackaday community. We also have a peer-reviewed journal with the same goal, and for the 2018 Hackaday Superconference ...

Let’s say a corporate engineer or a consultant is coming to your station to diagnose and repair a problem using an RF spectrum analyzer. This would be a great time to schedule a meeting with your ...

Wireless-communication technologies are evolving from 2G, 2.5G, and 3G to 3.9G technologies. Consumer demand for seamless access to data and personal content—that is, voice, music, and video—is ...

Modern pulsed radar systems use advanced waveform and modulation characteristics to obtain greater range resolution, enhanced clutter suppression and superior target recognition. Specifically, ...

While it’s seldom necessary (post-installation, anyway) to test the physical-layer behavior of a wired LAN infrastructure, the same cannot be said for wireless LANs. Many elements, including fading, ...
