  • Abstract
    The authors present the 20/30-GHz front-end of the TMS-7 station for performing the measurement of the flux density of one or more signal carriers received from the OLYMPUS satellite. The front-end is composed of two receiving channels and a pilot generator. Local oscillators follow the frequency drifts of the satellite signals using a complex phase-locking system
