ABSTRACT:
A linearizer particularly valuable for millimeter wave satellite communications is disclosed. A satellite (12) divides signal into linear (20) and nonlinear (32) paths which are converted to finline. A pair of beamlead PIN diodes (48) and a pair of varactor diodes (52) extend across the finline linear path to constitute an attenuator and phase shifter. A pair of anti-parallel Schottky diodes (60) and a pair of PIN diodes (64) extend across the nonlinear path to constitute a limiter and an attenuator. A combiner (30) combines the linear and nonlinear signals for input to an amplifier.
