SPECS
The receiver consists of a 30 GHz low noise GaAs FET amplifier, a 30/20 GHz GaAs
Schottky barrier diode mixer, a dielectric resonated local oscillator, a 20 GHz high gain
GaAs FET amplifier, and a 20 GHz high power (0.5 W) GaAs FET amplifier. The
receiver has an 8 dB noise figure and a 48 dB gain in the frequency range from 28.395
GHz to 29.015 GHz (620 MHz frequency bandwidth).
