A two stage microwave hybrid integrated distributed amplifier with a gain of 7 ± 1 dB and a noise figure better than 5.2 dB in the 0.2–11 GHz band and better than 3 dB in the 7.5–11 GHz subband is reported. The amplifier ...

In the paper the gain-bandwidth relations of microwave distributed amplifiers are analyzed. It is shown that in case of proper realization corresponding to distributed amplifier (DA) requirements the amplifier gain and ...

The optical-microwave modulation transducer is a circuit transforming the intensity modulation of a lightwave to the modulation of a microwave carrier. In this paper using the linear parametric model of the transducer ...

A new approach us presented utilizing low-noise distributed amplification based on a hybrid integration technology, This way eight-octave bandwidth has been achieved with a responsivity characteristics flat from 40 MHz up ...

The paper discusses the application of harmonic-balance (HB) techniques to the analysis of optical injection locking of microwave FET oscillators. HB methods are first extended to cover the case of a circuit excited by a ...
