  • Abstract
    A novel millimetre-wave integrated circuit Gunn voltagecontrolled oscillator (VCO) has been developed with high output power using suspended stripline. An output power of 100 to 150mW has been achieved at frequencies between 33 and 42 GHz. A varactor diode was mounted in alignment and in close proximity to the Gunn diode to achieve an electronic tuning range of 300 MHz
