Low Noise Amplifier
The low noise amplifier (LNA) provides gain in the receive path and
amplifies the received microwave signals to the mixer. The gain and noise
figure of the LNA are chosen to maximize the overall dynamic range and
noise performance of the CTR 28 GHz receiver section.
Power Amplifier
The power amplifier provides gain in the transmit path. It boosts the signals in
the 28.5565-28.7565 GHz frequency range to the required level. The
amplifier is a solid state amplifier that has high linearity within a high output
power range.
Duplexer
The CTR 28 GHz uses the duplexer to combine and separate the transmit and
receive RF signals, allowing use of a common antenna for receiver and
transmitter.
Antenna
The CTR 28 GHz uses a reflector antenna to transmit and receive RF signals.
The transmitting signal polarity is defined as the direction of CTR 28 GHz
polarity.
Note: V= vertical TX wave polarization
H= horizontal TX wave polarization
Note: Lightening arrestors are not supplied with the CTR transceiver.
