Abstract :
The development of a Ku-band receiver front-end using microwave integrated circuit technology is described. The front end elements, including a GaAs FET RF balanced amplifier stage, an image reject mixer, and a varactor controlled GaAs FET oscillator are integrated in a very small simple hermetic package. Electrical design details are presented for the varactor controlled FET oscillator development.
