NRL Synthetic Heterodyne Processor.

Abstract

This is the first bimonthly technical report on the NRL Synthetic Heterodyne Signal Processor. At the time of writing we are about to test a breadboarded version of NRL's Differentiate and Cross-Multiply circuit with a special low-noise signal generator which synthesizes the action of the synthetic heterodyne signal processor. The time spent on this project so far has been mainly devoted to assembling a stock of electronic components, designing and constructing low-noise amplifiers for use with our spectrum analyzer, designing and constructing the low-noise signal generator, which will be described shortly, and investigating the availability of certain key components required in a compact signal processor. What follows is a brief description of this work. (Author)
