Abstract :
Several designs have been introduced to implement a microwave sampler. However, the approach to this issue has been almost completely empirical. This paper provides an effort to simulate an SPD (sampling phase detector) and illustrates the difficulties encountered in this process. The simulation and measurement of the constructed module, accompanied by a brief theoretical investigation give a new insight into the performance of the sampling device.
