The Design of 500W Solid-State Amplifier System for C-Band Radar

This paper introduces the system design of an C-band 500W solid-state transmitter. The power unit module is based on Gallium Nitride (GaN) with high output power and high efficiency, so the output of the power unit module is up to 80Watt. The output power of the transmitter which is composed of eight power unit modules with efficient synthesis network, reaches up to 500Watt. The machine in this paper adopts modular design with easy assemble and maintenance.
