“…An alternative direct conversion receiver architecture based on multi-port technology has been proposed in [3,4]. Multi-port technique has been used successfully in a variety of applications such as; in microwave metrology as a reflectometer and as a low cost vector network analyzer, in other applications such as; device characterization, material characterization, load-pull and source-pull measurements, time domain voltage and current measurement systems, phased array system, antenna measurement systems, and radar systems [5].…”
