Figure 178. IIP3 versus input power Pin<br />

In-band linearity has been measured using two tones within the bandwidth of the filter.<br />

Hence, the intermodulation products are not filtered out. In addition, measurements with outof-band<br />

tones swept in the spectrum have been performed as shown on Figure 179. Out-of<br />

band IIP3 exhibits linearity performances that have been correlated with in-band IIP3 and the<br />

filter selectivity. This enables the quantification of the strong interferers impact on linearity<br />

and it also shows that the active part of the filter does not limit linearity.<br />
