Mixer characters simulation with ADS?

[Ruritania]

Hi, does anyone have some tutorial or training material on mixer characters simulation, mainly NF, IP3, 1dBc, CG.

PS: I have the design guide, just need something more systematic and informative.

Thank you.

@DS is very good for mixers, using HB.
I think there is no "special" feature to know, it's possible to perform small signal and noise analysis on top of an HB, sweep power levels to simulate P1dB and IP3; it's very simple (once you know basics of @DS that are not so simple).
One suggestion could be to look at examples on mixers, there are a lot.

I hope it can help.

try @DS Mixer design guide , it is very usefull to know how to perform the simulation , but frist design ur circuit , and u can apply one of the measurments on it
i hope this help
