  • Abstract
    This paper presents a quasi-optical MESFET-based dielectric slab waveguide with an amplifier array. Up to 19 dB amplifier gain and 9.5 dB system gain is obtained at 7.38 GHz. Measurements of amplifier and system gain, |S21|, output power vs. input power and transverse power distribution are presented
