    摘要: An RF attenuator circuit comprising: at least a first voltage-variable resistive device connected between input and output nodes of the circuit to convey an RF signal along a signal path between the input and output nodes; at least a second voltage-variable resistive device connected between the signal path and ground; a differential amplifier having one input connected to means for supplying a reference voltage, another input coupled to the input node, and an output connected to the control voltage input of one of the voltage-variable resistive devices; an attenuator control voltage node connected to the control voltage input of the other voltage-variable resistive device; a predetermined impedance matching the expected output load impedance of the attenuator and connected between the output node and ground; and a constant current source connected to supply a constant current to the input node; the reference voltage being the constant current multiplied by the value of the matching impedance; whereby the differential amplifier provides a closed servo loop between the input node and at least one of the voltage-variable resistive devices to cause that device to slew to a resistance that presents the predetermined impedance at the input node, to preserve the voltage standing wave ratio of a signal conveyed through the attenuator circuit when the gain is changed by the attenuator control voltage applied to the attenuator control voltage node.

    摘要: A tuneable filter is provided in whicha received signal in a first frequency rangeis translated to a signal of a higher frequency rangeby means of a switchable frequency oscillator signal, filtered in a narrow band filter and then down-converted, preferably to the first frequency range. The switchable frequency oscillator signals are generated by a synthesiser which operates by mixing oscillator signals of different frequencies, selected by means of fast- switching microwave switches, in order to generate the required range of oscillator signal frequencies.
