Hi,
I'm an FPGA engineer working at a startup, and I've recently been asked to design a BBP. I have no experience with this area, but I accepted the challenge. The thing is, I have zero knowledge of EM or RF.
I'll soon be designing a BBP using the AD9361 as the RF frontend. What I wanted to ask is: is it possible to learn enough to become efficient with this chip and debug my BBP design (which will be an OFDM) without having prior RF experience?
I'm willing to learn everything that's needed, but if the learning curve is going to be very long, I need to communicate that to my management. The problem is that no one else in the company has RF experience either.
