Abstract :
The results of a theoretical study of a 140-220 GHz Schottky diode mixer are described. Close agreement is obtained between the measured performance and the performance predicted by the mixer analysis program GISSMIX. The importance of making separate sideband conversion loss measurements is demonstrated. A sensitivity analysis shows the effects of various diode and mount characteristics on the mixer performance.
