摘要: Impedance tuners are in evaluation within mobile handsets to improve radiated performance, compensate for environmental influences on antenna impedance, shrink volumes and shorten design cycles. As a new component the handset RF front end designer's toolkit, tuner specifications value propositions subjects of heated debate. A unified approach specifying performance remains be developed. This paper proposes such specification then details measured an integrated module against specification.
