Abstract :
The standardisation of Space Telecommunication equipments, and particularly of the receivers, requires double balanced mixers with overlapping frequency bands on the three ports. This paper deals with a mixer based on a multioctave hybrid tee using coplanar lines and slot-lines. The mixer design and its performances are presented for 6/4 GHz, 8/7 GHz, 14/12 GHz, 18/12 GHz Translations.
