A typical application +of cascade is the analysis of a receiver. A text description of the +receiver block diagram consisting of things like amplifiers, mixers, +and filters is entered into cascade. Each element is characterized +by its gain and optionally noise figure, and third order intercept +point. The program then analyzes the system and produces a report +detailing the performance at each stage. + +A summary is produced which shows the relative contributions to the +total system performance of each block. This allows easy identification +of what limits system performance. + +WWW: http://rfcascade.sourceforge.net/ |
