MICROWAVE DEVICE TECHNIQUES FOR AEROSPACE SURVEILLANCE.

Abstract

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) Domain Fields in Gunn Devices; (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; and (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.
