Program Computes Receiver Gain And Noise Profiles

RCVRPROF computer program is computer-aided-design (CAD) software tool useful in analysis and design of communication receivers and downconverters. Provides customized spreadsheet with formulas and graphs providing detailed description of performance of receiver. Such performance parameters as noise temperature, gain, noise power, noise spectral density, and dynamic range analyzed for contribution of each to overall performance of receiver.

Program Predicts Mixer Intermodulation Products

IMODP is computer-aided-design (CAD) software tool useful in analysis and design of frequency-conversion schemes. Analyzes intermodulation products created by mixing of harmonics of local-oscillator (LO) signal with harmonics of another radio-frequency (RF) signal. Such mixing results in signal components in intermediate-frequency (IF) range above required rejection level. Highly interactive with user. Written in Microsoft FORTRAN.
