  • Abstract
    Numerical optimization is used to design broad-band tunable circuits, with a given reflection coefficient. The design of a varactor tuned Gunn oscillator serves as an example of this approach. Constraints on the variables are given as bounds for realizability, specifications on the tuning variable and conditions for stable operation. Measurements and modelling of used components are discussed briefly. Results for the designed oscillator are given.
