The next generation of mobile wireless technologies (5G), RF imaging, and even radar will be leveraging upper microwave and millimeter-wave frequencies for high data rate communications and sensing applications. The U.S. FCC and ITR have already investigated several upper microwave and millimeter-wave bands for use for these applications, and intense international investment has been gaining ..

Depending upon the frequencies, power levels, and physical requirements, either coaxial or waveguide interconnects are used for high power RF and Microwave applications. Both technologies vary in size as a function of frequency and require higher precision materials and manufacturing processes to handle higher power levels. Generally, as a product of the way the RF ..

A Radio Frequency mixer is a three-port passive or active device that combines two or more signals into one or two composite output signals, and is the backbone of heterodyne and superheterodyne communications technologies. The purpose of a mixer is to produce a signal at a new frequency, while preserving other characteristics of the initial ..
