Original Kurzfassung:
In this paper a study of integrated radiometer receivers based on subharmonic self-oscillating mixers (SOMs) and their frequency scalability is presented. A basic design model for the receiver is developed and applied to receivers with different input RF frequencies. Starting from simulations and measurement results for a prototype at 5.8 GHz validating the proposed circuit model, a millimeter-wave receiver at 35 GHz is designed. The results in terms of performance are presented and compared, and the frequency scalability of the circuit architecture is discussed.
