Microwave multidiode integral oscillator modules with a controlled range of varactor frequency tuning

Three-and six-diode integral oscillator modules were considered the designs of which ensure the possibility of electric tuning of both the output signal and the bandwidth of varactor frequency tuning. In addition, the six-diode oscillator module simultaneously ensures both the efficient combining of power of diodes with negative resistance at the level of semiconductor chips. Such oscillator modules are designed for operation in the centimeter and millimeter wavelength bands. The results of experimental investigations of prototypes of integral multidiode IMPATT-oscillator modules manufactured with due regard for the results of mathematical simulation were presented.
