A GaN-HEMT Active Drain-Pumped Mixer for S-Band FMCW Radar Front-End Applications

This paper reports for the first time a drain-pumped (DP) mixer using Gallium Nitride (GaN) HEMT technology. Specifically, it describes a method aimed to predict the optimum bias conditions for active DP-mixers, leading to high conversion gain (CG) and linearity, along with the efficient use of the...
