    Abstract: A temperature compensation circuit (26) is used to provide a reference signal in a feed forward gain control loop (28). With such an arrangement, gain control is provided wherein variations of an output signal of the amplifier circuit (10) due to changing characteristics of amplifier elements (12,18) of the amplifier circuit (10) caused by ambient temperature variation or a varying input signal level are minimized. Part of the amplified (12) input signal is supplied by a coupler (14) to a detector (20) followed by a low pass filter (22) that supplies one input of a differential amplifier (24) that receives the reference signal and supplies a control signal to a controllable attenuator (16).

    Abstract: A SAW stabilized oscillator (10) includes a phase locking circuit (38,16,20,22,36) which is phase locked to a lower frequency reference signal having an odd order difference with respect to the fundamental frequency of the SAW oscillator (14). A mixer (54) is disposed in the phase locking circuitry and is used as a sub-harmonic phase detector by mixing the fundamental (54a) with an odd harmonic (54b) of the reference signal (10a). The mixer output (54c) is filtered (70) and amplified (72,74) before being supplied to the control voltage input terminal (36′) of a voltage controlled variable phase shifter (36) in the SAW oscillator (14) loop (13).

    Abstract: A forward looking sensor (FLS) has a transmit antenna (52) and a receive antenna (56). The receive antenna (56) is coupled through a low noise amplifier (122) and a single sideband generator (126) to a down-converting mixer (146) which supplies an intermediate frequency signal to a further down-converting mixer (158). The further down-converted signal is supplied to an analog-to-digital converter stage (166) of a digital signal processor (60). The transmit antenna (52) receives a signal for transmission from a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) (70) in a transmitter circuit (50). The single sideband generator (126) comprises a power divider having an input port coupled to the output port of the low noise amplifier (122), and first and second output ports supplying respectively the input ports of first and second amplifiers (132, 134). The amplifiers (132, 134) have respective control ports to which a synthesized fixed frequency is supplied in quadrature to modulate the received signal. The outputs of the amplifiers (132, 134) are coupled to respective input ports of a quadrature coupler (142) having a first output port at which a filtered, single-sideband signal is provided, and a second, terminated output port.

    Abstract: An automotive forward looking sensor has a transmit antenna (52) that generates a multiple beam pattern (68a - 68m), and a receive antenna (56) that receives in a multiple beam pattern (66a - 66m). The outermost beams (66a,66m; 68a,68m) of the patterns are used as alignment beams and are aimed at approximately 20° in opposite directions from the nominal centre line of the forward looking direction, and are angled down at approximately 45° towards a road surface. With the beams properly aligned, substantially identical Doppler returns are detected. Difference between Doppler returns indicates misalignment.
