  • Abstract
    This paper presents the design and performance of a x2x2 frequency multiplier chain from 40 to 160 GHz. The input power at 40 GHz is 500 mW with a final output power of 35 mW at 158 GHz. The 3 dB bandwidth at the output frequency is over 10%. The results demonstrate good agreement between the modeled and measured data. The work described in this paper involved extensive thermal modelling of the structure including the diode and filter circuits; this analysis allows good power handling performance for high power applications.
