Abstract :
Ku band variable gain-constant phase amplifiers have been developed using dual gate FETs and appropriate CAD techniques. Obtained performances of the realized MIC at 15 GHz are: gain control of 26 dB associated with phase modulation of about 10 degrees and a maximum transmission gain of 4 dB in a bandwidth of 2 GHz.
