Abstract :
A 6-GHz integrated front end was made using microwave integrated circuits and satisfying system specifications. The front end consists of a mixer and a local oscillator made from a 1.5-GHz phase-locked loop and a frequency quadrupler. A noise figure better than 6 dB was achieved using Si Schottky barrier diodes.
