Rugged & Environmentally Sealed Ku-Band Block Up Converter
This paper describes the design & development of a Ku band Block Up Converter. Block Up Converter is one of the important blocks in the ground segment of a Satcom terminal. The L band input signal is single up converted to Ku Band and amplified for transmission. Bandwidth of operation is 750MHz. The module has a gain of 70dB (min). This forced-air-cooled Ku-band BUC has many integral RF & power supply protection features for 24x7 outdoor operation in Satcom uplink systems.
