摘要:
A microwave mixing circuitry has a plurality of microwave signal input terminals, a local oscillator for outputting a local oscillation signal for the purpose of generating an intermediate frequency signal from the microwave signal input by the microwave signal input terminals, and a plurality of field effect transistors (“FET”) for frequency converting. The FET gates are input with the microwave signal input from microwave signal input terminals. The FET drains are input with an output of the local oscillator. A plurality of gate voltage control circuitries control gate voltages of the FETs thereby causing one of the FETs to perform nonlinear operation while turning off another of FETs at the same time. An intermediate frequency signal output terminal outputs the intermediate frequency signal produced by the nonlinear operation of one of the FETs.

A microwave oscillator for inducing parallel feedback from collector to base and obtaining a stabilized oscillation output is realized by connecting MSL A with released end to a base terminal of a transistor, connecting MSL B to its collector terminal, and disposing a DR closely to the MSL A and B to couple them electromagnetically. The length between the released end and the position of MSL A which is closest to the center of DR is set to λg1/4 (λg1 is the guide wavelength in the MSL A), and HIL is merely connected to this position as a bias supply line to the base terminal. This structure does not require the choke circuits which occupied a relatively wide area on the conventional circuit board, and a small and stable microwave oscillator having excellent phase noise characteristics, and a low-noise converter for receiving satellite signal by using the same are realized.

A microwave mixing circuit of a small size for selecting a signal to be received out of plural microwave signal inputs, and converting it to an intermediate frequency signal, and a down converter comprising it are provided. A microwave input signal within a band of 12 GHz applied to one microwave signal input unit is guided through a bias terminal from a comparator into a mixer diode to which a bias current is supplied, and is converted in frequency by the mixer diode. A microwave input signal applied to other microwave signal input unit is guided through the bias terminal from the comparator into a mixer diode to which bias current is not supplied, and is hence not converted in frequency by the mixer diode. As a result, only an intermediate frequency signal of 1 GHz band corresponding to the former microwave signal appears at the intermediate frequency signal output terminal.

A down converter device is disclosed which is used in a satellite communication system to convert a microwave signal to an intermediate frequency signal by the use of a standard signal having a frequency range of several to several tens of MHz, and to apply the intermediate frequency signal to a next stage component. The down converter includes a mixer for producing the intermediate frequency signal indicative of a frequency difference between the standard signal and the microwave signal. A separator is provided which includes a first terminal for receiving the intermediate frequency signal, a second terminal for producing and supplying the intermediate frequency signal to the next stage component and for receiving the standard signal from the next stage component, a first filter for separating the standard signal, and a third terminal for producing the standard signal to the mixing means.

A receiving device is used that includes a main tuner 11, a sub-tuner 12, and a control unit 13 is used. The main tuner 11 and the sub-tune 12 have local oscillators 25, 45, respectively, for generating local oscillation signals according to frequencies of selected channels, and extract signals on the selected channels by using the local oscillation signals. The control unit 13 judges whether the frequency of the channel selected by the main tuner 11 is identical to the frequency of the channel selected by the sub-tuner 12. When it is judged that they are identical, the control unit 13 stops the generation of the local oscillation signal by the local oscillator 45 of the sub-tuner 12 and causes the sub-tuner 12 to extract the signal on the selected channel by using the local oscillation signal generated by the local oscillator 25 of the main tuner.

A microwave circuit includes a concentric-circle-like prominence (7) formed on a contact surface which is on the side of a metal body (3) serving as an external conductor of a coaxial line and which connects a conductor strip (1) of an MSL formed on a dielectric substrate (2) to an internal conductor of the coaxial line through a through-hole (9) extending from a ground plane (11) of the MSL through the dielectric substrate (2). The construction involves no mismatched portion and can prevent a loss and deterioration in VSWR in the coaxial-line/MSL conversion section, thereby making it possible to obtain satisfactory characteristics.
