Directional Couplers: From HF Units to High Power Systems Directional couplers may seem like a minor component in RF systems, but their importance is enormous. They may be easy to overlook, but behind the scenes, directional couplers bring precision and reliability to RF communications. These small passive devices split, combine, or isolate RF signals, all
Supporting Emergency First Responders Emergency first responders play a vital role in our society. They provide rapid and critical support during medical emergencies, accidents, natural disasters, and other public safety incidents. However, it’s important not to take their contributions for granted. In the background, there is essential technology like RF and monitoring solutions that support
Why Extended Coverage Range Matters Today We live in a time of unparalleled connectivity and communication. The wide availability and reliability of cell phones, mobile internet, GPS, and more are things we can take for granted. Not too long ago, the world was a very different place without these modern conveniences. Even when you do
The Importance of Filters in Reducing Interference Interference is the bane of all RF systems. Unfortunately, interference is also ubiquitous, and devices have to accept it. This can wreak havoc on the performance of radio communications, wireless data networks, emergency communication systems — essentially anything that relies on RF to work correctly There is a
