MICROWAVE DEVICE TECHNIQUES FOR AEROSPACE SURVEILLANCE.

Abstract

This is the third Quarterly Status Report for Contract AF30(602)-3595 and reports work done during the period of 1 May - 31 Jul 66. The objectives of the contract are to conduct a theoretical and experimental investigation of microwave techniques with a view toward development of devices applicable to surveillance systems. The emphasis shall be primarily directed toward requirements of phased array radar systems. This investigation presently includes the following projects. (1) Thin Film Transducers; (2) Parametric Amplification of Acoustic Waves; (3) Carrier Wave Propagation in Semiconductors; (4) Whistler Mode Propagation in Solids; (5) Periodic Ferrite Delay Lines; (6) Adiabatic Magnetoelastic Conversion in the Time Domain; (7) Theory of the Gunn Effect; (8) Guided Acoustic Waves; (9) Double-ended YIG Variable Delay Line; The project titled Theory of Carrier Wave Propagation has been completed and a technical report is now in preparation. Two new projects, titled Guided Acoustic Waves, and Double-ended YIG Variable Delay Line, are reported herein for the first time. (Author)
