Triad RF Systems has published a technical brief that highlights several critical considerations for designing a bespoke RF (radio frequency) amplifier. These amplifiers play a vital role in the interaction systems of UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) and other unmanned technologies,enhancing low-power RF signals for extended-range transmission.
Customization of RF amplifiers becomes essential when off-the-shelf (COTS) options fail to meet specific requirements regarding gain, power, linearity, or other performance metrics.
