Chapter Meeting Technical Talk by Mr. Yoshiyuki Yanagimoto, Agilent Technologies, Japan. Topic: X-parameters for Nonlinear RF Circuit Design Abstract:
X-parameter is an non-linear extension of
S-parameter, which is expected to provide both
higher
level of insights into non-linear
phenomena and greater design efficiency of
non-linear circuits. In this presentation,
X-parameter will be first introduced in a
technical aspect. However, more time is intended
to be spent to present how it can be used in the
real world. An introduction of a few recent
studies on X-parameters will follow and then a
short demonstration of the ADS simulation will
be shown. Speaker's Biography: Mr. Yoshiyuki Yanagimoto joined Yokogawa-Hewlett-Packard in 1985, after getting Master's degree of physics at the University of Kyoto, as R&D engineer. For his 19 years contribution in R&D, he has designed the synthesizer portion of HP3588A spectrum analyzer, hardware leader of HP4396A Network/Spectrum analyzer, project leader of HP5022A Hard Disk Head Test System, and program manager of E5052A Signal Source Analyzer, before he becoming R&D section and marketing manager in 2005. Currently, he is focus on the development of Nonlinear Network Analysis solution as Business Development Manager of Component Test Division in Agilent Technologies. Date : 14th, July 2009. Time : 7.15pm, refreshment and networking start at 6.30pm Venue: RF and Microwave Lab, Penang Skill Development Center, Penang.
