  • Abstract
    This letter describes the use of a coupled TEM line circuit with high-power high-efficiency silicon avalanche diodes to achieve broadband pulsed amplification in S band. An output power of 50 W, with 6 dB gain and 10% instantaneous 3 dB bandwidth centred at 2.7 GHz, has been obtained.
