What would be the limiting factor for the > further power increase? The limiting factor here would be absolute specs on ACPR, out of band spurs ... i.e. TX spectrum mask, expressed in dBm not in dBc. For example, you may meet <= -45dBc ACPR but on the other hand you can not inject noise into adjacent channel more than xdBm. LMS device is OK for 20-25dBm modulated output power. We can probably push it more however this is not tested so far. > > 3. Is there any issues using TDD mode in LMS6002D?

We measured around 20us TX<->RX switching time. We will probably need to reconfigure VCO supplies on UmTRX board to simplify switching control while keeping switching time at 20us. Lat us know when you are ready for such experiment. > > -- > Regards, > Alexander Chemeris. > CEO, Fairwaves LLC / ООО УмРадио > http://fairwaves.ru -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
