Abstract
A GaAs MMIC chip set and its integration into a P-code GPS translator for use in tracking high speed objects is presented. The translator provides over 125 dB of transmission gain with 3.5 dB noise figure, occupies 18 cm/sup 3/, survives 16000 G mechanical shock and operates from -40/spl deg/C to 85/spl deg/C.
