What is an effect of excessive phase noise in an SDR receiver’s master clock oscillator?
Which of the following receiver circuits can be effective in eliminating interference from strong out-of-band signals?
What is the term for the suppression in an FM receiver of one signal by another stronger signal on the same frequency?
What is the noise figure of a receiver?
What does a receiver noise floor of -174 dBm represent?
How much does increasing a receiver’s bandwidth from 50 Hz to 1,000 Hz increase the receiver’s noise floor?
