Wireless and Microwave Instructional Laboratory

Laboratory #0 Notes

The purpose of this laboratory exercise is to introduce you to the following tools:
1. Use of the Vector Network Analyzer as a signal source.
2. Use of the Oscilloscope as a time-domain signal measurement tool.
3. Use of the Spectrum Analyzer as a frequency-domain signal measurement and analysis tool.
4. Mathcad as a Mathematical Analysis tool.
5. Advanced Design System (ADS) as an electromagnetic circuit and system simulation tool.

For this exercise you will need to turn in the following items:
1. One-Page Post-Laboratory Report
2. Worksheets containing results and comments
3. Mathcad Graphs for 0, 45 and 90 degrees phase of the second signal
4. ADS Circuit Schematic for Lowpass Filter
5. Graphs for ADS Simulation of Lowpass Filter
