A novel frequency discriminator using a dielectric resonator is described, for use at frequencies circa 30GHz. The circuit achieves excellent temperature stability (< 6ppm/deg C) at very low unit cost, and overcomes the need to use two closely tuned resonance modes. It is useful in particular for automatic frequency control (AFC) of mm-wave oscillators, and is suitable for inclusion with other functions in a microwave integrated circuit. The resonator puck is bonded by a novel technique giving very low additional loss, unlike the use of epoxies.

The practical description and theoretical basis of an outdoor, transportable, cylindrical near field antenna test facility is presented. The fully automated system makes small demands upon overall test time, computer storage and processing time. Its prime purpose is for radiation pattern testing of large L-Band radar antennas.

Several Xand Ku-bandfilters using dielectric resonators in microstrip-line circuit configuration have been designed and measured obtaining good results. A monomodefilter in the TE01¿ centered in 11,6 GHzwith a 150 MHzband has been realized. Then, a theory for multimode design is presented, obtaining a mode-chart that allows theoretical prediction and approximate filter design. A second three-pole Chebyshev filter using TE01¿ and TM21¿ modes was constructed obtaining 240 MHz bandwith. Finally, a third four-pole filter has been designed and measured, obtaining a 500 MHz bandwith centered in 12,25 GHz.

A 26GHz-band IMPATT direct oscillator frequency modulator stabilized with a dielectric resonator has been developed. The developed frequency modulator consists of MIC, presenting great potentials for reduction in device size and cost. The frequency modulator incorporating two MIC isolators provides an output power exceeding +23dBm, a frequency stability of within ±l×l0¿4 over a ¿10°C to +50°C range, a DG of less than 1% over a ±8MHz-range, and a phase noise of better than 72dBc/Hz at a frequency 10 kHz apart from the carrier frequency. The frequency modulator thus developed will sufficiently be applicable to FM transmitters in mi1limeter wave radio communication systems.

The classical Sommerfeld problem of a vertical magnetic dipole above a planar interface of two dielectric and possibly lossy media is considered in terms of image principles. It is shown that an exact continuous image can be constructed in closed form, which totally lies in complex space. Unlike all previous image theories, being exact, the present theory can be applied for any distance, height of the source and parameters of the half space. It is demonstrated that the well-known dipole image at complex depth and reflection coefficient method both are special cases of the present method. The significance of the exact image theory lies in better convergence of field integrals over the classical Sommerfeld integrals.

A high-resolution airborne imaging system has been developed that uses cryogenic receiver modules at 90 and 140 GHz. They consist of Schottky-barrier mixers followed by GaAs-FET IF amplifiers. The DSB receiver noise temperatures are 210 K for the 90 GHz and 250 K for the 140 GHz system. The instantaneous bandwidth is 2.5 GHz for both front-ends. Results of some flight tests are presented.
