Nonlinear vector network analysis: A technique for characterising complex RF and microwave systems by accounting for non-ideal, nonlinear behaviours in devices and measurement instruments.

The calibration procedure is tested on a 0.6-mum CMOS pipeline analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which suffers from a high degree of nonlinear errors. The calibration gives improvements of 17 and 26 ...

For a 590-kHz sinusoidal signal, the calibration improves the ADC signal-to-noise-distortion ratio and spurious-free dynamic range from 41.3 dB and 52.1 dB to 72.5 dB and 84.4 dB, respectively. With ...

In this study, we applied both carbon-13 (13 C)-labeled and unlabeled amino acid mixtures to establish standard calibration curves for various amino acids, using the AQC derivatization method and the ...

The calibration curve was constructed by plotting the peak area against the concentration, using linear regression analysis. Accuracy and precision Accuracy was carried out by adding a known amount of ...

The homogeneous alkaline-catalyzed transesterification reaction of triacylglycerols with methanol is the chemical conversion option that has met with the greatest favor in industrial biodiesel ...
