Abstract :
An analytical design approach has been used to develop a broadband planar mixer for continuous operation in K- and Ka-bands. The double balanced design, fabricated on fused quartz, exhibits excellent conversion loss and isolation characteristics, and can be used with either coaxial RF connectors (K-Connector) or integrated directly with other planar components.
