  • Abstract
    The design and performance of a 5 Watt 6 GHz solid state source intended for use in a high capacity FM microwave repeater is described. It utilizes a 2 GHz power amplifier and step recovery diode multiplier and generates 5 Watts with an overall efficiency of 8%. FM noise is less than 3.5 Hz RMS in a 1 KHz slot from 60 KHz to 10 MHz off carrier.
