Abstract: Methods and apparatus for a frequency selective limiter (FSL) having a magnetic material substrate that tapers in thickness and supports a transmission line that has segments and bends. The segments, which differ in width and are substantially parallel to each other, such that each segment traverses the substrate on a constant thickness of the substrate.

Abstract: A frequency selective limiter (FSL) is provided having a transmission line structure with a tapered width. The FSL includes a substrate having a magnetic material, a signal (or center) conductor disposed on the substrate and first and second ground plane conductors disposed on the substrate. The signal conductor having a first end with a first width and a second end with a second different width such that the signal conductor is provided having a taper between the first and second ends of the signal conductor. First and second ground plane conductors are spaced apart from first and second edges of signal conductor, respectively, by a distance that changes from the first end of signal conductor to the second end of signal conductor such that signal conductor, and first and second ground plane conductors form a co-planar waveguide transmission line.

Abstract: A frequency source with improved phase noise. In one embodiment a phase-locked loop is used as a component of a frequency source and a signal to noise enhancer (SNE) is used to suppress phase noise produced by the phase-locked loop. The signal to noise enhancer is a nonlinear passive device that attenuates low-power signals while transmitting high power signals with little loss. The signal to noise enhancer may be fabricated as a thin film of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) epitaxially grown on a gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) substrate, the GGG substrate being secured to a microwave transmission line from the input to the output of the signal to noise enhancer, such that the thin film of yttrium iron garnet is close to the transmission line.

Abstract: A frequency conversion circuit having a plurality of N signal channels, each being fed an input signal and a train of pluses having a period T and a duty cycle T/N. Each channel includes: a sampler coupled the input signal and being responsive to sampling signals; and a controllable time delay for producing the train of sampling signals in response to the train of pulses, the time delay imparting a time delay to the pulses in accordance with a time delay command signal fed to the time delay. Each one of the sampling signals is produced by the time delay in each one of the channels with the period T and the duty cycle T/N with the sampling signals in one of the to trains of the sampling signals being delayed with respect to the sampling signals in another one of the trains the sampling signals a time T/N.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a radio frequency (RF) input signal using at least one non-reciprocal circulator. The method also includes generating an RF output signal using at least one of multiple reflective filter elements. Each reflective filter element is configured to receive an RF signal from the at least one non-reciprocal circulator and to provide a filtered RF signal to the at least one non-reciprocal circulator. The reflective filter elements include amplitude change reflectors configured to modify amplitudes of the RF signal at different frequencies. The RF output signal represents the RF input signal as modified by the at least one of the reflective filter elements.

Abstract: A frequency selective limiter (FSL) is provided having a transmission line structure with a tapered width. The FSL includes a magnetic material having first and second opposing surfaces. A first conductor is disposed on the first surface of the magnetic material, where a width of the first conductor decreases from a first end of the FSL to a second end of the FSL along a length of the FSL. Two second conductors are disposed on the second surface of the magnetic material, where a width of a gap between the two second conductors decreases from the first end of the FSL to the second end of the FSL along a length of the FSL. The first conductor and two second conductors form a biplanar waveguide transmission line.
