1 dB Output Gain Compression Point Measurements

This LabVIEW panel shows the results of a computer automated 1 dB Output Gain Compression Point measurements for a PCS band RF amplifier. Measurements were performed using a programmable signal generator and a spectrum analyzer. A power meter was used to calibrate the input and output cables and connectors, and the spectrum analyzer amplitude readings. This panel design is tailored toward an "engineering evaluation" environment, instead of a "production test" environment. This is just one example of the types of automated RF measurements that can be performed using LabVIEW.
