Title :
Low Noise Octave Bandwidth Waveguide Mixer
Abstract :
A new broadband mixer capable of operating over two full adjacent waveguide bands (18 to 26.5 GHz and 26.5 to 40 GHz) is described. The maximum conversion loss is 6.5 dB from 20 to 40 GHz with a corresponding average DSB noise figure of 5.7 dB.
