BALANCING THE BUDGETS: THE IMPORTANCE OF DEDICATED SOFTWARE FOR SYSTEM DESIGN

摘要

The problem of exporting system level design models to the component engineering disciplines, and vice versa, is addressed. For instance, common office spreadsheet programs are often used by system engineers to model power budgets, filter losses and signal-to-noise ratios. To offer a new solution, an example is given of a Tx/Rx channel in a WCDMA base station. Also, a worked example of a feed-forward amplifier is given along with sampled data.
