As GPS jamming and other forms of GNSS disruption become more widespread, researchers are advancing alternative navigation technologies that could provide positioning when satellite navigation is unreliable or unavailable. A recent report from The Economist examines two approaches gaining traction. One uses highly sensitive magnetometers to navigate against maps of variations … [Read more...]
How to Build a Reliable TDR from S-Parameters to Reduce EMI Worries
When Two TDRs Don’t Agree As modern high-speed designs push into multi-gigabit and higher data rates, EMI and EMC engineers rely on multiple signal integrity (SI) metrics to evaluate interconnect performance. Among these, time-domain reflectometry (TDR) remains one of the most direct methods for identifying controlled impedance and … [Read more...]
Evaluating Patch Antenna Printed Circuit Boards Utilizing RF Absorber and S11 Measurements
Introduction Patch antenna printed circuit boards (PCBs) are among the most common pieces of radio frequency (RF) hardware that exist in modern systems today. Wireless communications, automotive radar, and aerospace/defense systems rely heavily on these structures for transmitting and receiving electromagnetic energy.

User demands have shifted connectivity from being a … [Read more...]
Why Maxwell’s Plane Wave Solution Matters in RF
Transmission lines, antennas, and RF measurement systems all rely on a single electromagnetic model - the plane wave solution to Maxwell’s equations. While often treated as a theoretical result, this solution governs how energy propagates, reflects, radiates, and ultimately contributes to interference in real RF hardware. There are several, heavy … [Read more...]
