CHIPS R&D: High Speed Digitizer

The project “RF Channel Propagation Measurements and Models for Communications Circuits” is based on the existing expertise and measurement methodology of the channel measurement and modeling team. This project aims to dramatically accelerate the time needed to develop models and measurements to industry stakeholders while also providing improved targeting of identified needs for maximum impact. The experimental portion of this work seeks to develop a new generation of channel sounder with FPGA and GPU integration for near real-time data processing.The experimental approach used by the NIST channel sounding team is to produce, transmit, receive, and subsequently digitize complex modulated radio-frequency waveforms to provide improved dynamic range as needed to measure lossy communications channels. In support of the CHIPS project, the new channel sounder will require a digitizer with the capability to digitize and subsequently strea
