Measure amplifier non-linearity using two-tone signal
=====================================================
HOWTO
-----
# Take a USRP B200
# Connect its TX to the amplifier you want to measure
# Connect the amp to an big enough attenuator
# Connect to the B200 RX
The amplitude ramp script is going to generate a two-tone (1kHz separation)
signal at 222MHz, and record outgoing signal magnitude and phase difference
against the source signal. The measurements are written into a CSV file.
It's your job to ensure you don't overload the B200 input signal power (-15dBm
last time I checked).
First step is to gather some measurements:
./amplitude_ramp.py --ampl-start 0.15 --ampl-stop 0.5 --ampl-step 0.01 --num-meas 300 --txgain 77
This creates a measurement.csv file you can analyse with
./plot.py
That's it for now.
