Abstract :
The development of a 10W MIC combiner/amplifier which combines the powers of 12 FET elemental amplifiers over a 24%, 1 dB band is described. The combining efficiency is greater than 90 percent. The design of both the radial combiner and the elemental amplifiers is described. Extension of the combiner design to operation over an octave will be discussed.
