Abstract :
MMIC technology has enabled very complex microwave and millimeter-wave systems to be conceived, using a modular approach to the various functions. The application of this modular approach to the design of advanced multioctave microwave receivers is described. The individual building blocks are described, and typical performances are given. The integration of complete compact receiver modules using these advanced concepts is discussed
