Desensitization (of a Mixer)

 

Compression in the IF output power from a desired RF input signal caused by a second- high level signal being simultaneously applied to the RF port of a mixer. As a rule of thumb, in low level mixers, an undesired RF input 3 dB below the mixer conversion compression point will begin to cause desensitization.
