Abstract

The linearity of single sideband transmission peaks is checked in the same way as RF power amplifiers, normally using a multi-tone test. Considerable control of the measurements is required in particular for short peak power levels. There are also other parameters that affect the transmission. The classic procedures for linearity testing and for determining the bandwith occupied by J3E transmissions are discussed. A new measuring method is presented which makes it possible to measure the effective bandwidth occupied under real conditions and constellations.
