RESEARCH ON ELECTRONIC RECONNAISSANCE ANTENNAS

Abstract

Research continued on broadband, low-noise amplifier and mixer circuits suitable for integration into an antenna to form a unified system. A broadband, low-noise, hybrid-coupled parametricAMPLIFIER IS DESCRIBED. Research was also continued on the use of RF circuitry and nonlinear elements as integral parts of an antenna configuration to perform functions such as mixing, phase-shifting, amplifying, and tuning. The problem of matching a negative resistance element to a transmission line is discussed. Matching of a tunnel diode directly to a dipole by means of a gamma-match is considered. (Author)
