摘要
We present a C-band monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) transmitter module development for multichannel RF/optical subcarrier multiplexed (OSCM) communication applications. The C-band MMIC transmitter module consists of one fully monolithic four-channel OSCM transmitter IC and four coupled-line filters. This MMIC is designed and implemented in a commercial GaAs MESFET process and coupled line bandpass filters are fabricated on the module board. We present the design and performance of the first fully monolithic IC transmitter module for OSCM packet switched applications.
