A two-stage X-, Ku-band monolithic FET amplifier has been developed.Initial results indicate a gain of 7-10 dB acr&s the 8-20 GHz band with a typical rf power output of 100 mW. A balanced amplifier consisting of two two-stage amplifiers and a pair of Lange couplers yielded 10.5 t 1 dB gain from 7.5 to 18 GHz and an output power of 150-250 mW in Ku-band.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
