Listed below are some of the projects with which Alpha-Science was involved: IFF Testing and Simulation System – Helped design and support the RF section of a 1030/1090 MHz system that automatically tested IFF interrogators and transponders. This system is widely fielded by the US Navy. Radar Altimeter – Redesigned a high-linearity C-band VCO for use in the USAF standard radar altimeter. This VCO is currently in production. Radar Amplifier – Designed a 400 MHz, 300 Watt, 50% duty cycle amplifier for use in radar systems. Feed-Forward Amplifier – Designed at 500 MHz feed-forward amplifier for use with CATV systems. Wide Band Power Amplifier Module – Designed a 30 MHz – 1 GHz, 2-watt wide band amplifier module. RF Power Transistors – Assisted with the development of RF power transistors. Microwave Assembly Line – Set up a microwave assembly line. Ku-Band Power Amplifier – Designed, fabricated and tested a 20 GHz, 20 watt amplifier for space applications. High-Speed Modulator – Developed a high-speed modulator with a 60 volt swing and a 2 nS transition time. 800W L-Band DME Amplifier – Developed a solid-state 800 watt L-band amplifier for use with airborne Distance Measuring Equipment (DME). This item is currently in production. 500 Watt L-Band High Duty Cycle Amplifier – Developed an efficient high-power solid-state L-band amplifier capable of operation with a 50% duty cycle. 30 MHz 1 KW Amplifier – Developed this HF amplifier for use on shortwave radio stations. X-Band Power Amplifier – Developed an X-band 10-watt amplifier. |
