AI Technical Summary
Existing upconversion and downconversion devices in the terahertz band have poor compatibility, which requires the separate purchase of downconversion and upconversion modules. Furthermore, the shared or separate port design of the local oscillator input and intermediate frequency output reduces the adaptability of the device.
Design a terahertz broadband up-conversion device, which adopts a local oscillator and intermediate frequency multiplexing port, with a built-in duplexer and flexible port jumpers, supports shared or independent port input/output for local oscillator/intermediate frequency. Up-conversion of signals is achieved through duplexer, mixer and intermediate frequency signal processor, and signal purity is improved through six frequency multiplier and isolator.
It enables flexible switching between terahertz downconversion and broadband vector signal upconversion, improving the compatibility and applicability of the device, supporting frequency expansion of spectrum analyzers from different manufacturers, reducing the noise figure, and improving the purity of spectrum analysis.
