Research abstract
JJW is proposing a development of MMIC chips for Q/V/W-Band High Powered Amplifiers for the MILSATCOM marketplace and other phased array systems. The development of phased array systems have been hindered due to the high cost and poor performance of the high power MMIC chips that are an integral part of the system configuration. The MMIC chips will have a power output of 100mw, a PAE of 40%, with 25dB of gain. This two stage MMIC will have a production cost of approximately $3.00 per chip compared to a present day cost of about $16.00. We will also be generating designs for a 2watt version of the high power amplifier with a PAE of 35% and a gain of 20dB.
