Interactive example notebooks for PathSim-RF.

RF Engineering

RF Amplifier Compression

Simulation of an RF amplifier with gain compression demonstrating the third-order nonlinearity model. We sweep the input power and observe the 1 dB compression point and gain saturation behavior.

RF Mixer Downconversion

Simulation of a superheterodyne downconversion stage using the block. A high-frequency RF signal is mixed with a local oscillator (LO) to produce an intermediate frequency (IF) output.

Superheterodyne Receiver Chain

Simulation of a basic superheterodyne receiver front-end combining multiple PathSim-RF blocks: an RF amplifier (LNA), a mixer for downconversion, and an IF amplifier. This demonstrates how the bloc...

Transmission Line Pulse Propagation

Simulation of pulse propagation through a lossy transmission line using the block. We observe the propagation delay and attenuation of a Gaussian pulse traveling through the line.
