Abstract:
Based on the application requirements for miniaturization of an airborne radar transceiver module and hybrid micro-wave integrated circuit technology, a 330 GHz integrated transceiver module is designed. The transceiver module consists of local oscillator channel, transmitter channel and receiver channel. The input signal of local oscillator channel is transmitted after fre-quency doubling, filtering, amplifying and power splitting, and the low noise reception of echo signal is completed. This module a-dopts the design concept of transceiver integration and single-stage quadrupler, it achieves high integration and output power re-quirements by simplifying the circuit topology. The overall size of the designed transceiver module is 65 mm×38 mm×19 mm. The test results from 329 GHz to 341 GHz show that the transmitted power of the transceiver is between 2 mW and 5 mW, the conver-sion loss of the receiver is between 11 dB and 13 dB, and the power consumption of the module is 10. 38 W. The transceiver has good RF performance and has been successfully applied in a radar system.
