Time Gate When You Feel Like it

---

        Why time-gate onboard a VNA?
What if you want to change the gate parameters later?
What if you want to gate 1000's of measurements?

Processing RF/Microwave data is complex, and each step may unknowingly introduce errors which comprimise the design process. 810 Labs believes post processing should be flexible and interactive, so that the effect of each step can be explored without re-taking measurements.

Simplify Multi-moded Analysis

---

        Ever try to plot a *.s20p?

Big problems require new methods of interactive visualization. 810 Labs can help you leverage the tremendous work being done is the python data-science community to simplify your analysis. The example above shows the s-matrix of a 20-port network with an interactive frequency axis. This captures cut-on frequencies, isolation, and crosstalk in single visualization.

Visualize Impedance Renormalization

---

        A lot of existing software tools force the workflow :
change setting, inspect results
change setting, inspect results
change setting, inspect results
With interactive visualization, complex effects such as impedance renormalization can be witnessed in real time. 810 Labs can create custom visualization tools to support your workflow.

        scikit-rf (aka skrf) is an Open Source, BSD-licensed package for RF/Microwave engineering implemented in the Python programming language. It provides a modern, object-oriented library which is both flexible and scalable. Most importantly, scikit-rf allows the vast array of incredible python modules to be integrated with RF/microwave engineering. S-parameter data can be crunched like big data, plots are one-liners, and web front-ends are whipped up in a weekend.

More information about scikit-rf can be found at scikit-rf.org.

THe Jupyter Notebook

---

.

---

The Jupyter Notebook is a web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and explanatory text. Uses include: data cleaning and transformation, numerical simulation, statistical modeling, machine learning and much more.

More information about scikit-rf can be found at jupyter.org.

THe python ecosystem

---

.

---

The python ecosystem is populated with a wide variety of open-source, profesional quality modules. This allows new scientific applications to be integrated with database systems, local user interfaces, and web-apps seamlessly. Not only does this cut down on development costs and time, but allows for solutions that are otherwise intractable with multi-language approaches.

More information about popular python modules can be found at wiki.python.org.

  Alex Arsenovic received a B.S and Ph.D in Electrical Engineering from the University of Virginia in 2007 and 2012, respectively. While completing his Ph.D. thesis on microwave metrology, he created scikit-rf and has been actively developing it since 2009.
   Alex has worked as an independent consultant in Central Virginia for the past 4 years, with clients such as Virginia Diodes Inc, Nuvotronics, and Plotly. He continues to work closely with the University of Virginia, and has authored and co-authored over 15 technical papers in the field of microwave metrology and calibration. In 2016, he created Eight Ten Labs LLC to continue providing the services for microwave metrology, software development, and applied mathematics. His chief interest is in modernizing the theoretical and computation tools used by microwave and electrical engineers.
