The Dependence Of Measured Modulation Error Ratio On Phase Noise, Ron D. Katznelson Aug 2008

The Dependence Of Measured Modulation Error Ratio On Phase Noise, Ron D. Katznelson

Ron D. Katznelson

This paper reviews the algorithms used by Vector Signal Analyzers to measure Modulation Error Ratio (MER) and derives the explicit functional dependence of measured MER on phase noise of digital transmitters. The modulation error model is introduced and the analytical expression for key estimated parameters required to obtain MER measure are derived. The essential elements of algorithms employed by MER measurement instruments to estimate amplitude scale, frequency offset, and initial phase intercept and the resulting MER are identified. The frequency response of the effective phase-noise rejection filtering action associated with a given measurement epoch is derived. It is shown that …


Memorandum Of Amicus Curiae In Opposition To Uspto's Motion To Strike Exhibits, Ron D. Katznelson Feb 2008

Memorandum Of Amicus Curiae In Opposition To Uspto's Motion To Strike Exhibits, Ron D. Katznelson

Ron D. Katznelson

In response to USPTO's Motion to strike the exhibits of my Amicus brief (see USPTO's motion attached below), this memorandum establishes that such exhibits are properly before the Court. It details the legal standards of review under the Administrative Procedures Act for including extra evidence beyond the agency administrative record and establishes that all subject exhibits in my Amicus brief meet the criteria for augmenting the record in this case. On April 1, 2008, the Court issued its decision in favor of Plaintiffs and permanently enjoined the USPTO rules. (See Order and Opinion attached below). The USPTO's subsequent appeal of …
