  • Abstract
    The design and performance of a monolithic double-balanced upconverter for mm-wave point-to-multipoint distribution systems are presented. Individual building blocks including the LO / RF balun, IF balun, LO / RF power amplifier, and the double-balanced mixer are also fabricated and tested. The complete upconverter, measuring 3×3.2mm, upconverts the 3 - 5GHz IF to 40.5 - 43.5GHz band with 20 dBm output power.
