Abstract :
This paper discusses the design, construction, and performance of a wideband ferrite duplexer for airborne radar application. The duplexer, in conjunction with fixed and switchable circulators, replaces the conventional gas-filled TR tube, allowing the receiver and magnetron to share a common antenna. Radar reliability is significantly improved by the elimination of the spike leakage which occurs in gas-filled TR tubes
