Self-testing solution are very useful not only for make sure that devices are operating in the correct way, but also to realize system auto-calibration: auto-calibration is based on the experimentally extraction of proper parameters and it is usually realized by adopting radio frequency noise injection subsystems. In these cases, the systems use power acquisition devices, based on diode detectors, to perform the measurements; this solution denotes poor reconfigurability, unless a very complicated system architecture is adopted. In this paper we prove that the measurements needed for the over mentioned purpose, can be performed avoiding the application of complex architectures, by using software-defined radios with high level of potential reconfigurability and flexibility.
