DEVELOPMENT OF AN E-BAND AMPLIFIER
Abstract
Progress is reported on the electrically-tunable filter, the permanent magnet, and important test equipment. Two tubes are under fabrication. The first tube reached the final alignment stage, prior to glassing and exhaust and the second tube approached the matching stage. The prototype filter had most encouraging initial tests. Performance over the full band was achieved with instantaneous bandwidths of 30-80 mc at 6-8 db resonance insertion loss. A flexible dielectric waveguide was fabricated and utilized in the filter measurements. Initial set-up on the receiver (for loss and noise figure measurements) is discussed. (Author)
