The Technical Requirements For Multichannel Qam Rf Modulators, Ron D. Katznelson
The Technical Requirements For Multichannel Qam Rf Modulators, Ron D. Katznelson
Ron D. Katznelson
This paper addresses the technical requirements and implications for multichannel QAM RF modulators and upconverters and the factors that affect their proposed RF specifications. RF output power levels per channel, adjacent channel noise and broadband noise levels of such a class of multichannel modulators will be discussed. A spectral noise specification mask that is equivalent to that obtained from a combination of multiple identical masks of a standard single channel noise specifications based on power addition will be presented. The power back-off required for maintaining the proposed distortion mask levels as a function of the number of adjacent channels supported …
A Case For Including Harmonic Distortion Components In Docsis’ Rf Specifications For Non Aggregating Spurious Components, Ron D. Katznelson
A Case For Including Harmonic Distortion Components In Docsis’ Rf Specifications For Non Aggregating Spurious Components, Ron D. Katznelson
Ron D. Katznelson
This note is submitted in support of a change in DOCSIS specifications for spurious performance. It shows that the impact of a proposed change is negligible and that the advantages far outweigh the perceived disadvantages of adopting such a change.
