Abstract
The application discloses a measuring system and associated method for measuring phases of IMD3 signals generated from a power amplifier. The method includes: performing a phase estimation process, including a plurality of sub-processes, wherein each sub-process includes: generating a first main signal, a second main signal, a first adjustable signal, wherein frequencies of the first main signal, the second main signal, the first adjustable signal are f1, f2, 2f1-f2; and correspondingly measuring a first power at frequency of 2f1-f2; and estimating a phase of the IMD3 signal at frequency of 2f1-f2 caused by the first main signal and the second main signal passing through the power amplifier according to a plurality of first powers obtained from the plurality of sub-processes; wherein in each sub-process, a phase of the first adjustable signal is different from that of other sub-processes.
