Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

If a mixer has an input P1dB of +4 dBm and a conversion gain of 5 dB, what is the expected output P1dB? Simulate a situation of adjusting input power above this point and describe what might happen.

💡 Hint: Always account for the gain when assessing output power.

Challenge 2 Hard

In a scenario where a device operating at P1dB leads to significant distortion, propose methods to mitigate distortion effects in practical applications.

💡 Hint: Consider how to handle excess power levels.
