## Abstract A MMIC (monolithic microwave integrated circuit) mixer chip using the Schottky diode of an InGaAs/GaAs pβHEMT process has been developed to act as the receiver down converter of a Kaβband satellite transponder. A different approach to the MMIC mixer structure is applied for reducing the
In this paper, a very compact 16-element digital beamforming (DBF) receiver-array module operating in the Ka-band is demonstrated for the first time. The active microwave circuitry is outlined and, following this framework, challenging electronics-integration aspects are discussed in detail. The fir
