Abstract

The article introduces a method designing and manufacturing a microwave receiver for an X-band phased array radar station on a purpose-built vessel. The design method uses new generation components, based on survey results, functional analysis, and calculation of parameters of the original block that directly affect the formation of the block's function. The microwave receiver block works according to the principle of super-external deviation, mixing frequency twice; its task is to filter and convert microwave pulses into intermediate frequency pulses 2 to the intermediate frequency amplifier.
