摘要: In accordance with various aspects of the present invention, a method and system for an antenna modular sub-array super component is presented. The modular sub-array super component allows for multiple antenna product designs to utilize a common low cost aperture element assembly block, quantities of which may be scaled up or down to suit the physical, performance, and power requirements of a specific antenna system. More specifically, a method and system for connecting various components of an antenna modular sub-array using a bar with leads connector is discussed. The bar with leads may connect antenna subcomponents or subassemblies.

摘要: A MMIC package is disclosed comprising: a leadframe based overmolded package, a die positioned within the overmolded package; and a partial waveguide interface, wherein the partial waveguide interface is integral with the overmolded package facilitating low cost and reliable assembly. Also disclosed is an overmolded package where the die sits on a metal portion exposed on the bottom of the package and the package is configured for attachment to a chassis of a transceiver such that heat from the die is easily dissipated to the chassis with a direct thermal path. The disclosure facilitates parallel assembly of MMIC packages and use of pick and place/surface mounting technology for attaching the MMIC packages to the chassis of transceivers. This facilitates reliable and low cost transceivers.

摘要: In accordance with various aspects of the present invention, a method and system for designing an inclined antenna array with a hybrid mechanical-electronic steering system with improved radiation performances at low elevation angles is presented. In an exemplary embodiment, a radiating element structure is attached to a mounting surface and includes a patch antenna and a ground plane. The bottom edge of the patch antenna is farther from the mounting surface than the top edge of the patch antenna. If the radiating element structure is used in an inclined array antenna, then the patch antenna has an uncovered view of a low elevation angle. Furthermore, at least a portion of a patch antenna may be uncovered and have a clear view. A clear view of the low elevation angle results in increased directivity and increased polarization quality due to reduced signal scattering.

摘要: An RF power detector having a wide dynamic range may comprise a chopping amplifier and is configured to detect pulsed high frequency RF signals. The chopping amplifier controlled by a bias current regulator amplifies and chops an RF signal by periodically enabling and disabling the amplifier according to a system clock. The chopped high frequency RF signal feeds a Schottky diode biased to operate in the square law region for weak signals. The Schottky diode voltage is tapped and high pass filtered. The voltage drives a logarithmic and linear converter. The converter outputs are summed to produce an output voltage that is a repeatable and stable monotonically increasing function of the RF power.

摘要: A solid state power amplifier (SSPA) system may include a radio frequency (RF) input, an RF waveguide split block, multiple monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) power amplifier modules, and/or a heat spreader. The power amplifier modules and RF waveguide may be distributed about the heat spreader in different planes. Furthermore, the power amplifier modules may be located on opposite sides of the heat spreader and nonplanar to the waveguide split block. A method for dissipating heat within an SSPA may include receiving an RF signal in a first plane, amplifying the RF signal in another plane, and combining the RF signal in yet another plane.
