INAF/JPL LNAs: VNA WARM TEST. As Run Procedure and Results.

Abstract

INAF/JPL LNAs will be implemented as a part of the B2+3 WTB (Warm Test Baseplate)to amplify the signal coming from the OMT: the signal is expected to be amplified by roughly 40 dB before being delivered to a downconverter. This is obtained using two cascaded LNAs. LNAs have been designed to be used in the nominal W band [75 GHz: 110 GHz],originally furnished with a filter peaked around 94 GHz and a square law detector. Nevertheless, we want to test the LNAs in the extended B2+3 band between 67 GHz and 116 GHz
