  • Abstract
    Real power gain from a quasi-optical power combining dielectric slab waveguide amplifier system is reported for the first time. The system employs four MESFET amplifiers located under the slab, and a small signal gain of 10.5 dB was achieved. Measurements of insertion loss and E-field patterns are presented.
