Description
This ESA-funded activity focuses on the computer-aided design (CAD) of manifold-coupled multiplexers used to implement PIM measurement test beds. After a brief summary of the demanding requirements to be satisfied by such multiplexers, two novel topologies of rectangular waveguide filters conceived for this particular application will be shown. Next, the procedures carried out for the design of the involved multiplexers are outlined. Finally, the performance of several wideband manifold-coupled multiplexers, specifically for PIM measurement set-ups to be used in the European RF High Power Laboratory (located at UPV, Valencia, Spain),is fully validated with prototypes and measurements.
