A Dummy Load is a device used to simulate an electrical load during testing. In an RF System a dummy load is used to simulate an antenna. By using a dummy load instead of an actual antenna, the transceiver can be tested and configured without radiating radio waves.
Similarly, you may ask, what is a RF dummy load used for?
Radio frequency dummy loads (RF dummy loads) are types of devices used to simulate the working conditions of a circuit so that it can be tested.
Beside above, what does a dummy load consist of? So a dummy load usually consists of a composite resistor, one with a resistive material, but no coils (so no inductance), or non-inductive. It usually contains a heat sink, or some way to dissipate the heat, so the resistors don't burn up.
Besides, how do I choose a dummy load?
Choosing dummy load is more about technical parameters than material construction. There is no specific standard for materials. Tip1:The dummy load should be the same resistance as the antenna does, as its role replacement of antenna play,it should match transmission line well.
What are dummy devices?
A dummy device contains all four sensor values that can be used as variables to store custom numerical data. ( floating point values, like 123.50) The dummy device can be used like any other sensor to send it's data to the Home Automation controller.
