APPLICATION OF TUNNEL DIODES AS ACTIVE SCATTERER LOADS,

Abstract

The report consists of preliminary studies related to the application of active loads, such as tunnel diodes, to antenna systems for the purpose of enhancing the echo area. Problems discussed include the elaboration of the relevant diode characteristics, an optimization procedure for a dipole-tunnel diode system, stability considerations, and some thoughts on the treatment of nets of diodes as negative-resistance sheets.
