IQ Mixers
The new MMIC IQ mixers from Fairview (also known as IQ modulators) utilize a highly reliable GaAs MESFET semiconductor process which integrates a pair of matched double balanced mixer cells, a 90-degree hybrid and a 0-degree splitter/combiner that produces exceptional amplitude and phase balance performance. This level of integration offers size and performance advantages in comparison to discrete module assemblies. With the addition of an external 90-degree IF hybrid module, these IQ mixers can be used as either a Single Sideband Up-converter Mixer or an Image Reject Down-converter Mixer. The benefit of image rejection and sideband suppression can reduce overall system cost and complexity by removing the need for pre-selection filtering. Typical applications include point-to-point and point-to-multipoint radio, VSAT, military radar, electronic warfare, satellite communications, test equipment, and sensors.

Vector Network Analyzers
One of the most important measurement tasks in radio engineering is the analysis of electrical circuits. A network analyzer is an instrument that is designed to solve this problem with high accuracy and efficiency. The circuits that can be analyzed with network analyzers have a wide range of applications ranging from simple devices such as filters and amplifiers to complex modules used in communications satellites. PLANAR specializes in the development and production of vector network analyzers that combine the capabilities of scalar network analyzers that measure not only the amplitude components of the main characteristics of the system (gain, loss, standing wave ratio, etc.), but also allow measurements of the amplitude and phase characteristics of the system .

Cassegrain Antennas
In telecommunications and radar, a Cassegrain antenna is a parabolic antenna in which the feed antenna is mounted at or behind the surface of the concave main parabolic reflector dish and is aimed at a smaller convex secondary reflector suspended in front of the primary reflector. The beam of radio waves from the feed illuminates the secondary reflector, which reflects it back to the main reflector dish, which reflects it forward again to form the desired beam. The Cassegrain design is widely used in parabolic antennas, particularly in large antennas such as those in satellite ground stations, radio telescopes, and communication satellites.
