Microwave Solid State Sources and Integrated Circuits

摘要

The report describes the completion of the studies, initiated in FY 69, carried out to assess the practicability of applying microwave integrated circuits and solid state fundamental oscillators to future sensor subsystems for radar and communications, including data relay. The X-band eight-element phased array was evaluated, a simple MIC module including a printed antenna was constructed and studies were carried out of avalanche diode oscillator modulation characteristics, MIC IMPATT avalanche diode oscillators, MIC antennas, and MIC evaluation techniques.
