Abstract :
Over the last two years THALES ELECTRON DEVICES (TED) has developed and industrialized a new generation of Microwave Power Module (MPM). This generation has been designed for military applications such as data link, radars (illuminators or weather radars) and electronic countermeasures. TED has designed the MPM to be modular. Depending on the future system needs, the MPM can be reconfigured to take into account specific frequency bandwidth or operating modes. TED has a long experience of this type of product through MPM developed for different programs like Watchkeeper (UK) and RECO-NG (Fr).
