A New IMPATT diode amplifier circuit is described which uses planar microstrip circuitry. A single-diode stage serves as a driver for a four-diode combiner stage. The combiner uses a tree of three hybrids of the Wilkinson-Gysel type. GaAs double-drift IMPATT diodes are used. The device provides a minimum of 12 dB gain over a band from 9.4 to 10.6 GHz with a peak pulsed output between 105 and 120 watts over the band.

Compact elliptic bandpass filters of three types are constructed by using four TM/sub 010/ dielectric rod resonators. Filters designed to have center frequencies of 3 to 5 GHz, relative bandwidths of 2 to 13 percent, insertion losses of 0.3 to 1.6 dB, and minimum stopband attenuations of 40 to 52 dB.

Nineteen patients with malignant brain tumors who had failed to respond to conventional therapies were treated with invasive thermotherapy. In the last four of these patients the thermotherapy was combined with brachytherapy. Hyperthermic temperatures (-43 °C) were induced in the tumors using microwaves at a frequency of 2450 MHz that were guided into the tumors by one or more semi-rigid coaxial applicators. The feasibility of non-invasively heating malignant brain tumors that are located close to the skull is being investigated. A microwave lens that can concentrate 915 MHz microwave power into small tissue volumes shows promise of being clinically useful.

The operation principle and the design method of Distributed Bragg Reflector Gunn oscillators in the millimeter waveband are described based on the theory of coupled-modes in a dielectric grating region, the oscillator is constructed by an inverted-strip dielectric waveguide and an inserted Gunn diode. A practical oscillator with an output of 60~90 mW and 10/sup -5/~10/sup -6/ frequency stability at 36 GHz has been performed, the test results are in agreement with theoretical predictions.

An optimization procedure for characterizing finline discontinuities has been developed using the generalized scattering matrix formulation for steps in finline technique. The general waveguide representation of a two-taper finline section with a step is investigated first. The scattering matrix representation of the step is deduced from a combined measurement-numerical optimization procedure. Experimental results will verify the feasibility of the method.

Radar system needs exist for antennas capable of forming simultaneous orthogonally polarized congruent agile beams. For a phased array system this implies that the phase shifters must be capable of transmitting and receiving any arbitrary polarization. This paper describes the performance of a latching reciprocal ferrite shifter at X-band frequencies which provides polarization-independent performance at moderate power levels and with low insertion loss.

New types of microwave frequency discriminators are proposed for the narrow band as well as wide-band applications. An example of branch-line hybrid type with 5% operation bandwidth is presented at 4.94 GHz. A bridge type wide-band frequency discriminator is realized using microstrip lines and slot-lines. An experimental discriminator has 50% band-width, which shows good agreement with the theory.

Based on a coupled-mode theory, the power transfer between two parallel single-mode and multimode optical fibers is investigated. Numerical calculations show that power coupling among the guided modes can be very complicated. The theoretical results provide an important guidance for the design of directional couplers composed of such fibers.
