Abstract

This paper presents the design features, simulation & implementation of a X-band Pulsed Power Amplifier and down converter using double down conversion technique in a single mechanical housing. This module has been designed & tested for various features like high output power, high gain in PA section & low noise figure, excellent image rejection, high gain, MSTC, AGC & BITE check in Down converter section. Module is designed, fabricated & tested successfully and is meeting all the required specifications. A close match is achieved between the simulated & tested results. Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) is predicted to be 13530Hrs.
