摘要:
An amplitude modulator in which modulator characteristics can be tuned is provided. In an amplitude modulator, between two high frequency transmission lines for transmitting high frequency signals, is provided a PIN diode which is a high frequency modulating element that modulates a high frequency signal input from one of the high frequency transmission lines and outputs the high frequency signal to an output terminal of the other of the high frequency transmission lines. A bias supply circuit includes a trimmable chip resistor which is a variable resistor for adjusting a bias current flowing through the PIN diode. By adjusting a resistance value, the bias current flowing through the PIN diode is controlled, so that it is possible to tune the modulator characteristics.

A millimeter-wave transmitter-receiver uses an NRD guide as a fundamental configuration and includes a millimeter-wave signal oscillator, a pulse modulator, a circulator, an antenna and a mixer. In the millimeter-wave transmitter-receiver, a line length of a third dielectric guide is set so that δ=±π in which δ is a phase difference at a center frequency between a portion of a transmission millimeter-wave signal, which is reflected via a third dielectric guide on the leading end portion of the third dielectric guide and returned to leak to a third connecting portion of the circulator, and another portion of the millimeter-wave signal, which leaks from a first connecting portion to the third connecting portion of the circulator. It is possible to reduce the change in the mixer output and enhance the millimeter-wave transmission/reception performance.

Provided is a millimeter-wave transmitting/receiving apparatus of pulse-modulation type in which pulse-modulated millimeter-wave signals for transmission are prevented from being outputted to a reception system due to inner reflection or other causes. Included are: an NRD guide (basic structure) formed of a dielectric line sandwiched between parallel plate conductors; a millimeter-wave signal oscillator; a pulse modulator; a circulator; a transmitting/receiving antenna; and a mixer. At the output end of the mixer is disposed a switching device which interrupts intermediate-frequency signals in an opened state, and, when a millimeter-wave signal for transmission from the pulse modulator enters a non-output state and the condition is stabilized, changes into a closed state to pass intermediate-frequency signals. The intermediate-frequency signal containing noise resulting from the millimeter-wave signal for transmission entering the mixer can be prevented from leaking toward downstream side of the mixer; wherefore a desired intermediate-frequency signal can be outputted.

A high-frequency oscillator that can tune oscillation characteristics is provided. A high-frequency oscillator includes a Gunn diode serving as a high-frequency oscillation element that generates high-frequency signals, a resonator connected to the Gunn diode, a varactor diode serving as a variable-capacitance element that is disposed on the resonator and changes a resonance frequency, and a bias supply circuit that is connected to the varactor diode and supplies a bias voltage applied in order to change a capacitance. The bias supply circuit includes a trimmable chip resistor serving as a pre-set variable resistor that regulates a bias voltage applied to the varactor diode. By regulating the resistance value of the trimmable chip resistor, it is possible to control the capacitance value of the varactor diode and tune oscillation characteristics to a desired state.
