I'm trying to measure the gain of a high input impedance amplifier to use with a nelectrically small receiving antenna. I made some measurements using a signal generator in the input and a spectrum analyzer in the output. As a result, I got the figure attached. It's weird, because the gain rolls of until 640MHz, and then it starts rising again.
Is my measurement setup correct? I was wondering if the problem is that this amplifier is supposed to be used with an antenna in the input. Maybe my 50ohm signal generator does not model an small antenna correctly.
