		<description><![CDATA[Did you know &#8230;?
MMICs differ from other microwave integrated circuits in that they combine active and passive elements onto a single chip. MMICs offer the following advantages in that they:
- are smaller and cheaper to produce for higher volumes
- have good reliability and reproducibility, since no touch labor is involved in assembling them
- can perform [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Instructor Earl McCune has written a technical paper, &#8220;Modern Wireless Signals,&#8221; that is now available on the Bessernet.com website. Abstract — With the evolution of wireless systems and services, the on-air signals themselves are also undergoing very significant transformations. This paper provides a survey of the active and coming-soon signal types adopted for wireless systems [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Besser Associates instructor Rick Fornes gave June&#8217;s webcast on RF System Design principles. This tutorial summarizes some of the major points of the presentation.
One issue that most systems encounter is the fact that the transmitter and receiver share the same antenna. For for simplex or half-duplex systems, where the transmitter and receiver are on at [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last month, instructor Bob Froelich gave a brief introduction to the concepts behind impedance matching for RF circuits. A recorded version of his presentation can be viewed on the Microwave Journal website. Some of the main points of the presentation are summarized as follows.
One can begin to understand the need for impedance matching by reviewing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The main characteristic of a Power Amplifier is that the design is focused on high linear output power. Gain in the transistor is generally sacrificed in the name of a higher 1dB compression point. This leads us to examine the three possible objectives when designing an RF amplifier: high gain, low noise figure, or high [...]]]></description>
