The non-linearity distortion figure is necessary in the field of large dynamic range of signal. This letter analyzes the basic switch circuit and its inter-modulation, and studies in detail the measurement methods and systems of RF switch intercept point. It has provided cascaded simulation testing methods, which can accurately measure the PF switch, of which the second or third order intercept point value is above 75dB and 60dB, respectively. As the testing results are consistent with the theoretical analyses, it proves that the validity of the method satisfies the requirements of large scaled linearity measurement in engineering.展开更多

To cope with the problem of insufficient bea-con node for localization,we design a beacon discovery protocol in this paper that helps the blind node to find beacons nearby and present an energy efficient scheme for the beacon that receives the request from a blind node to adjust its radio range. We obtain the relationship between the mean energy consumption with adjust-ment number by the mathematical analysis. Numerical results show that great energy saving is achieved when the optimal ad-justment number is adopted.展开更多
