Improving BladeRF Sensitivity for Mobile Network Monitoring

Post by collegewave »

Hello everyone, I’ve been using a BladeRF to monitor mobile network signals. While it works, I’ve noticed the receiver’s sensitivity is quite weak compared to a normal mobile phone. I tried adding a MAX2615 LNA, which helped a bit, but it’s still not on par with phone performance. What additional steps could I take to further improve the sensitivity?
