Title :
Solid State Transmit/Receive Module for the PAVE PAWS (AN/FPS-115) Phased Array RADAR
Abstract :
The PAVE PAWS phased array RADAR (AN/FPS-115) utilized for long range detection and tracking of SLBM´s is presently under construction at two sites in the U.S.A. The system utilizes a solid state transmitter and receiver. This paper will discuss the transmit-receive configuration and the transmit/receive module developed for this application. The (sub) system configuration, module requirements and description, RF power transistors and performance to date will be presented.
