What is shoulder attenuation and how to measure it
Due mainly to nonlinearities in the power amplifiers the output RF signal contains unwanted band limit and out of band components, the shape of which has given rise to the term “shoulder”, that tend to compromise the compliance with the mask limits. Measuring shoulder is easier using PROMAX analysers.
