Noise figure analyzis software - la3pna/NFA GitHub Wiki

This is to develop the VNA software using HP8970A noise figure meter, SDRkits VNWA network analyzer and impedance tuner to obtain load pull parameters on semiconductors.

Goals:

  • Start VNWA software remotely
  • Calibrate vector measurment before use (S11)
  • Calibrate noise source before use

For each measurment do:

  • Measure S11 of tuner, determine impedance seen within 1% (or better, need to evaluate this)
  • Obtain noise figure in determined impedance
  • Go to next impedance point
