Abstract :
As part of a diode and mixer development effort,/sup 1/ a low cost subharmonically pumped millimeter-wave mixer design using GaAs beam lead diodes has been developed. It adopts a configuration which incorporates both waveguide and suspended stripline using a low cost Duroid substrate. A DSB noise figure of 8.5 dB has been achieved-using a 47 GHz Gunn local oscillator and 5- to 500-MHz IF amplifier with a 1.5-dB noise figure.
