RF and Microwave Measurements: Device Characterization, Signal Integrity and Spectrum Analysis

Andrea Mariscotti was born in 1968 and degreed at the end of 1991 in Electronics Engineering. In 1992 began his service as an Italian army officer in charge of quality control and EMC testing of military devices, and since then continued working in the EMC sector, applied to equipment and systems, in particular for naval and railway applications: signals, signaling and telecommunication systems, rolling stock, electrical and power equipment. Activities and interests has extended to cover earthing, power quality, lightning protection, and in general system-level design and integration of electrical and electronic systems. Based for about 20 years at the University of Genova, after the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, he has lectured and carried out research in electrical system simulation, power quality, EMI/EMC, electrical and electromagnetic measurements, analog circuits and design of sensors and instrumentation. His publications, including a book on EMC for railway applications, span across these topics and share between international journals and conferences. Presently on leave, he co-founded ASTM, where he is responsible for measurement and testing services and the development of new products.
