Executive Summary:

The project is about a software development for active load and source pull measurements. The measurement technique for vector network analyzers, firstly presented at the European Microwave conference in 2002 in Milan, Italy, allows to do fundamental device characterization of transistors and amplifiers in a non 50 ohm environment without the need for passive impedance tuners by simply utilizing two independent sources of a vector network analyzer. Up to now, only hybrid systems, combinations of active and passive impedance tun-ers, are realized to perform such measurements. The aim of the project is to develop a purely active system with known limitations in terms of power firstly and with the goal to gain knowledge and inputs for further developments sec-ondly.
The considerations of this paper are dealing with expected forecast numbers for the software option and additionally sold vector network analyzer hardware in order to calculate the cash flow and the net present value of the project. Additionally the costs of goods sold plus maintenance and service costs are considered. For the expected project time, 5 years plus 6 month of development, the project related income statement is given together with a balance sheet.
The conclusion of the development proposal is to accept the project due to a positive net present value and mainly due to the strategic importance for further vector network analyzer developments and an increased company reputation in the market.

Zielsetzung und Themenschwerpunkte (Objectives and Key Themes)

This project investigates the development of a software application for active load and source pull measurements utilizing vector network analyzers. The main objective is to create a purely active system, offering advantages over current hybrid systems in terms of performance and cost-effectiveness. The project aims to analyze the financial viability of this software development by evaluating the potential cash flow and net present value. Key themes explored in the text include:
  • Development of active load and source pull measurement technology for vector network analyzers
  • Financial analysis of the software development project
  • Evaluation of the potential market for the software and related hardware
  • Calculation of the project's net present value and other financial metrics
  • Assessment of the strategic importance of the project for future vector network analyzer developments and company reputation

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)

The project definition chapter establishes the context for the project, outlining the existing technologies and the proposed solution of a purely active system. It further discusses the assumptions and limitations of the project. The sales forecast chapter provides an estimation of the potential market demand for the software and any accompanying hardware. The operational cash flow and NPV calculation chapter delves into the financial viability of the project. It calculates the net present value of the project based on predicted sales of the software and hardware. The chapter also analyzes the impact of different scenarios, including variations in pricing and costs. The conclusion chapter summarizes the findings of the financial analysis and provides recommendations regarding the project's viability.
