| Image anf IF rejection - RF Cafe Forums | ||||||
|
Because of the high maintenance needed to monitor and filter spammers from the RF Cafe Forums, I decided that it would
be best to just archive the pages to make all the good information posted in the past available for review. It is unfortunate
that the scumbags of the world ruin an otherwise useful venue for people wanting to exchanged useful ideas and views.
It seems that the more formal social media like Facebook pretty much dominate this kind of venue anymore anyway, so if
you would like to post something on RF Cafe's
Facebook page, please do.
Below are all of the forum threads, including all the responses to the original posts. jab Post subject: Image anf IF rejection Posted: Thu Mar 23, 2006 1:24 pm Lieutenant Joined: Wed Mar 08, 2006 8:18 am Posts: 3 Guys - any idea on how to measure the image frequency and IF rejection ratio say your in band is 98MHz. Thanks. JAB Top yendori Post subject: Posted: Thu Mar 23, 2006 5:05 pm General Joined: Thu Sep 25, 2003 1:19 am Posts: 50 Location: texarcana Measure your desired IF signal. Apply the image frequency at the input and then measure the image IF.

Avoid taking a level any further down the IF chain, as the presumably FM receiver will have a nonlinear limiter. Set the generator frequency to 21.4 MHz above or below the 98MHz channel, eg 76.6MHz and increase the level of the generator until it reaches the previous level. Note the attenuator level setting difference. This is the Image Rejection ratio in dB Set the generator to 10.7MHz and repeat the measurement. The attenuator difference is the IF rejection. All best Trev Top jab Post subject: Posted: Tue Apr 04, 2006 8:54 am Lieutenant Joined: Wed Mar 08, 2006 8:18 am Posts: 3 Thank you Guys. I dont have the attenuator so this is what I did. First measure the direct inject sensitivity at operating freq. and inject the image - the difference is my ratio. same thing on 10.7MHz for IF. Thanks again. JAB Posted 11/12/2012 | ||||||
