I just built a BPF to be able to transmit WSPR with the Raspberry Pi GPIO/PWM trick. Having access to the RF lab of my uni is really useful for that, a VNA makes everything so easy. We're using R&S instead of Keysight, though, but hey, it's a German company and a German uni.
MY dream is to work as an RF engineer, i got stuck with commercial two way radio career and its cool but be in the design side of those Tx,Rf PCB boards was my dream. Because i didnt aquire desgin experience, now almost imposible to get hired as one. Love to hear this guys talking about RF
I didn't get the recommendation for the book, or was it a manual, by Daniel at the end of the podcast. In the comments "An Introduction to RF Circuit Design for Communication Systems" , and "Microwave Engr." by Pozar were recommended.
There are a couple ways to get into this. The main one for an EE is to find a job that has this as a component of your roles & responsibilities. A less formal way would be to start working on/building RF projects on the side as a hobby, there are a number of options out there. Finally, HAM radio certifications are a great way to build up some fundamental knowledge and get hands-on with basic RF tech.
ISM bands, sub giga: 315M(Japan), 433M(EU and US), 868M(EU), 915M(US) something like FoRa or RFM modules are great to work with in this ranges, range up to few km or miles with 100mW or less power
i've heard that "An Introduction To RF Circuit Design For Communication Systems" is a good intro without delving into complex formulas, but Microwave Engineering by Pozar is probably the best full overview
It was very evident that they were not prepared. Phil made himself sound like an sixth grade STEM student. If he had only prepared assuming there was a script would have been a better option. A one meter antenna at the top of the tower for AM broadcast stations and microwaves coming out of an antenna; we knew what he was trying to convey, but holy RF Batman!
More podcasts that specialize in RF please! Great podcast episode!
Thanks! We have more RF stuff coming!
I deal with mostly Rf connectors and cables I was always interested in more behind them I am a musician at heart but this is some cool stuff!

First ever podcast I watched in my life and I loved it ... Will watch others too
Glad you liked it!
Are you working on an RF project? We'd love to hear about it!
I'm a new EE and RF engineering inspired me to become an EE when I was in the military. What do I need to know to start getting on these projects?

How important is RF in defense applications?
@@karamany9870 incredibly important. RADAR, radios, and energy weapons are all RF applications.
one of the best episodes ever ..
You guys are saving my life .Thanks and love.
Thank you, your podcast is at the moment my favourite one! It's really interesting, hold it up!
Thanks!

I have no clue what the hell they are talking about but I like it
wow, these are amazing podcasts to happen to stumble upon!
Thanks! Check out the Keysight podcasts channel, too
Underrated.
This was cool, really want to see more of these.👍

Hi Daniel!!
Hi!
Which is best book for rf beginners
i've heard that "An Introduction To RF Circuit Design For Communication Systems" is a good intro without delving into complex formulas, but Microwave Engineering by Pozar is probably the best full overview
@18:10 UHF >> from 300 MHz to 3 GHz
Why is the App note 150 link not working?
Great question, let me fix that!
@@KeysightLabs thanks and merry Christmas :)
@@KeysightLabs well it’s still not working
6:35 its called harmonics.
He mixes up the RF systems, over simplified making it incorrectly stated...

It would be better if you add English subtitles.
Ah damn no links are valid I wanted to learn more as it's a field of work I really want to get into
Here's app note 150: www.keysight.com/us/en/assets/7018-06714/application-notes/5952-0292.pdf
I'll try to get links updated
Interesting and funny episode (y)
Was great, but finally something interesting comes along, and you "say oh its 20 mins now" such a horrible way to end a conversation.
Thanks for the feedback! We've since changed the format to allow for longer conversations, because I felt the same way!
