Abstract

PURPOSE:To suppress a generated spurious at a signal output terminal by appling and adjusting independently a foward DC bias voltage to a diode of each frequency converter forming the frequency converter. CONSTITUTION:A balancing type frequency converter consists of 180 deg. hydrids 11, 13, an in-phase hybrid 12 for local power branching, and frequency converters 14, 15. VB1, VB2 are DC bias voltages to the converters 14, 15 respectively. In applying the DC bias voltage in the forward polarity of the diodes of the converters 14, 15, the converted loss of each output frequency component is changed. Then, the amplitude generated from both frequency converters is made coincident by taking notice of an optional spurious. Further, the phase is made coincident by inserting a phase adjusting circuit to a signal line or a local oscillating line. That is, the spurious at the output terminal is suppressed completely.

Other frequency components become spurious. Normally, this spurious does not appear at the output end because a sufficient amount of attenuation is provided by a filter such as a band pass filter or a low pass filter.

In the conventional embodiment described above, in principle, spurious does not appear at the output end, but in reality there is even a slight variation in each station, and the hybrid for signal branching and combining also has amplitude and phase differences. Therefore, spurious signals are not completely suppressed. FIG. 3 illustrates the relationship between the spurious suppression amount and the amplitude +1]/phase variation between spurious signals generated in one and both frequency converters. From the figure, for example, 40 dB or more.
In order to obtain the second spurious suppression amount, it is necessary to suppress the phase and amplitude deviations within 1°□0.1dB.
This is an almost impossible value when considering the characteristics of each of the frequency converters and hybrids mentioned above.

As shown in equation (1), the conversion loss of each output frequency component can be varied. For example, in the case of a GaAs short diode, a noise is applied in the forward direction and the energy is 0.3
By changing the voltage by about 0.7 V, it is possible to match the amplitudes generated from arbitrary streaks of 1 NOA (for example, 2 fL) and 9 frequency converter forces. On the other hand, the phases can be matched by inserting a phase adjustment circuit into the signal line or the local line. Furthermore, spurious signals at the output end can be completely suppressed. The conversion loss for signal frequency components caused by these operations can usually be suppressed within 1 to 2 dB.
