Abstract :
A five-port Ka-band direct conversion receiver based on Six-port structures has been presented that is very suitable for software defined radio applications. An experimental prototype has been fabricated using microstrip components for 23-29 GHz frequency band. Simulation and measurement results are presented to validate the proposed approach. An exellent agreement shows the accuracy of the proposed technique.
