Development of a Large Dynamic Range Tunnel Diode Amplifier for Phased Array Receivers

摘要

The objective of this two-phase program was to develop large dynamic range S-band tunnel diode amplifiers for phased array receivers. Under phase I a prototype amplifier was developed and subsequently delivered to Lincoln Laboratories. Phase II called for a reproducibility study of these amplifiers and for the investigation of amplifier characteristics pertinent to phased array applications.
