Question 1

What is the main purpose of RF-LO isolation?

  • To measure output power
  • To prevent RF interference with the LO
  • To measure signal gain

💡 Hint: Think about what can happen if these signals interact.

Question 2

True or False: RF-IF isolation ensures that RF signals can easily contaminate the IF output.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Remember the function of isolation.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given an RF signal of +15 dBm and a local oscillator of +10 dBm, calculate the LO-IF isolation if the measured IF output is +5 dBm.

💡 Hint: Remember the isolation formula involving output and input powers.

Question 2

Discuss the potential consequences for an RF receiver if the RF-IF isolation is measured at only 10 dB instead of the ideal 25 dB.

💡 Hint: What does low isolation imply for unsuspected signals?
