In the World of Radio Communications, signals are rapidly going to be all digital. This trend is mainly due to the better spectral efficiency that these have, compared to the analog ones. Signals central frequencies, spectral density and bands are increasing to satisfy the growing users demand; thus, devices are becoming more complex and critical in every operation they are requested to cope.
Nevertheless, there are precise standards that must be met to market the product we are developing. This requires a full characterization of components, which, most of times, are quite different from each other and producing a specific test equipment for a single device to test is becoming too much expensive and unfeasible.
