Abstract :
This paper presents design and characteristics of a compact, highly integrated Ka-band T/R module built by using a miniature magnetron in the transmitter chain. By implementing a solid-state modulator and microstrip design in the microwave part of the receiver, the overall size of the module has been reduced significantly. The module provides capabilities to realize Doppler data processing by using a digital coherent-on-receiver technique
