This report is in three parts: 1. In the first part a user-oriented computer program for the analysis of single-ended Schottky diode mixers is described. The program is used to compute the performance of a 140-220 GHz mixer and excellent agreement with measurements at 150 and 180 GHz is obtained. A sensitivity analysis indicates the importance of various diode and mount characteristics on the mixer performance. 2. The second part of this report describes a computer program for the analysis of varactor diode multipliers. The diode may operate in either the reverse biased varactor mode or with substantial forward current flow where the conversion mechanism is predominantly resistive. In addition, a design for a varactor diode doubler, tunable over an output frequency range of 150-220 GHz, is given. The doubler has 10-20% conversion efficiency with an instantaneous bandwidth of 3%. 3. The third section of this report contains a description and analysis of i new H-plane rectangular waveguide transformer. The transformer can be made luckily and easily in split-block waveguide using a standard slitting saw. It is particularly suited for use in the millimeter-wave band, replacing conventional electroformed stepped transformers. A theoretical analysis of the transformer is given, and good agreement is obtained with measurements made at X-band. Design curves are included for transitions which have a VSWR <1.2 over a full waveguide band when the impedance ratio is as high as 4 to 1.
