I/Q Downconverters/Receivers
-
In-phase quadrature (I/Q) downconverters integrate an image reject mixer, a low noise amplifier, a 90° hybrid, and an LO buffer amplifier in one package. These devices are used in receiver applications to downconvert radio frequency (RF) signals to the desired intermediate frequency (IF) while ensuring low noise and high image rejection performance.

Range-Doppler Target Generators
ATG9100
-
The ATG-9100 is an example of a laboratory-quality instrument that will simulate complex target motion. Microwave signals from the speed camera enter the instrument through an integrated antenna which is then downconverted and digitized. Target simulation data is added to the digitized signal to provide range and Doppler information. The modified digital data is then converted back to an IF and upconverted to the original microwave frequency of the speed camera and radiated back through the antenna. Since the ATG-9100 can be phase-locked to an external 10 MHz reference standard, this instrument is suitable for use as a calibration standard for speed cameras.
