  • Abstract
    The impedance transformation properties of parallel coupled lines have been used to develop broadband reflection amplifiers operating in X-band. These amplifiers have demonstrated peak powers of 40 watts (single IMPATT diode), 63 watts (two diode combiner), and 110 watts (four diode combiner). 3 dB bandwidths of 1.4 to 3 GHz (14 to 30%) have been attained.
