  • Abstract
    The nonlinear effects in Impatt diode amplifiers have been investigated both theoretically and experimentally. Output power, group delay and AM-to-PM conversion characteristics show an increased unsymmetry with enhanced input level. The FM distortion is higher at band center than at the resonant frequency. Below the band center, a maximum is reached at for the AM-to-PM conversion. The output power of an amplifier may be much higher than that of an oscillator with the same diode.
