Abstract :
A 40-60-GHz-band integrated circuit dielectric resonator oscillator (DRO) in suspended stripline (SSL) is described. This Gunn DRO provides an output power of more than 17 dBm, and a mechanical tuning range of 1.5 GHz at 54 GHz has been obtained. A varactor-controlled oscillator (VCO) with an output power of 15 dBm across its 1000-MHz electronic tuning bandwidth at 53 GHz is also reported.<>
