Title :
Pin Diode Single-Sideband Modulator

Garver, Robert V.
Abstract :
A reflection-type single-sideband modulator is described that uses two PIN diodes separated by λ / 8. The modulator can give satisfactory suppression of undesired sidebands in a noncritical circuit, and computer simulations indicate that 20-dB suppression of the unwanted sidebands can be obtained over an octave bandwidth. It can provide even wider bandwidths when conventional C-section differential phase shifters are used.
