| (54) | Guide-microstrip transition integrating a polarization filter in hermetic active modules with high packing and associated modules |
| (57) A guide-microstrip transition including a decoupling filter on the power supply is
described. The transition is used in hermetic active microwave modules (SSPA) with
high packing. It comprises a glass bead coupling a microstrip of a MIC to a probe
functioning as an antenna in a resonant cavity communicating with a wave guide. The
probe also comprises a cylindrical conductor with very small diameter and electrical
length equal to one-fourth wave length at a frequency of 20GHz connected to the centre
of the armature of a discoid capacitor acting as a short-circuit for the RF. A connector
is also connected to the centre of said armature and to a battery. The connector and
the cylindrical conductor are aligned on the same axis of the glass bead. There is
also described a triple amplification module obtained by using said transitions. |
