    Abstract: A distributed matrix wiring assembly (10) uses a distributed matrix module (14) to connect a routing relay module to a payload equipment device (20) over a set of harness wires. The routing relay module is adapted to provide driving signals to the harness wires at a first end. The distributed matrix module (14) is connected to the harness wires at a second end as well as to the payload equipment device (20). The distributed matrix includes distributed matrix column wires and distributed matrix row wires which are configured to form a distributed matrix having distributed matrix nodes, each distributed matrix node being defined by the unique combination of a distributed matrix column wire and a distributed matrix row wire. Since the distributed matrix nodes form at least a portion of the overall matrix node requirement it is possible to reduce the number of harness wires required.

    Abstract: A half wave dielectric resonator assembly including a resonator cavity having a top surface and a bottom surface, an elongated cylindrical dielectric resonator positioned within said resonator cavity and first and second insulative supports to couple and insulate the ends of the cylindrical dielectric resonator from the resonator cavity. The dielectric resonator has a substantially small diameter to length ratio. The resonator assembly provides improved spurious performance and quality factor (Q) at a lower mass. A resonator filter is constructed using a plurality of these resonator assemblies, where adjacent pairs of said resonator cavities are separated from each other by a common cavity wall. By forming a first iris opening formed within a first common cavity wall and forming a second iris opening formed within a second common cavity wall having a position that is vertically offset from the position of the first iris, it is possible to reduce stray coupling.

    Abstract: A redundancy combiner assembly has two amplifiers (1, 2) connected in parallel along a waveguide path to a hybrid (3dB). The hybrid is connected through a transfer switch to an antenna The hybrid contains a movable coupling plate. The coupling plate has a coupling array to allow combining of signals of the amplifiers in one position. When one of the amplifiers fails, the coupling plate is replaced by a metal wall and the output from the failed amplifier is directed by the switch to a dump load while the output from the operating amplifier is directed to the antenna. The assembly is controlled by a controller, which monitors the amplifiers and controls the movement of the coupling plate and the switch.

    Abstract: A novel circuit packaging structure including a combination of printed lumped elements within a multi-layer stripline architecture is provided and methods of making the same. The lumped elements are provided by printing the individual passive elements, including interdigital capacitors and spiral inductors, onto the supporting substrate and then embedding these elements into the multi-layer stripline structure. The stripline structure consists of a signal layer sandwiched between at least two ground layers separated by two dielectric substrates of equal thickness. This ground-signal-ground approach confines the electromagnetic fields within the multi-layer structure, thereby minimizing radiation from coupling to nearby components. This approach offers a unique combination of stripline technology and printed lumped elements resulting in miniaturized radio frequency and microwave circuits at operating at frequencies well below 1GHz, up to several GHz.

    Abstract: A temperature compensated filter has a compensating screw (18) mounted in a support (40) in the wall (22) of a cavity. The support is made from a material having a high coefficient of thermal expansion compared to the material of the cavity and the material of the compensating screw. As temperature changes, the support moves the compensating screw either further into the cavity or further out of the cavity to compensate for the change in resonant frequency of the cavity that would otherwise occur. The compensating screw can be used with single, dual or triple mode cavities. The compensating screw can be made of metallic material or it can be made of non-metallic material with a metallic outer surface. The compensating screw is locked in the support before the support is inserted into the wall of the cavity. The support is then locked in the wall of the cavity and the screw automatically changes position within the cavity as temperature changes. An RF barrier (50) can be used to prevent RF energy from the cavity from entering the area of the support.
