Analyzing Millimeter-Wave Mixers

Series of computer programs developed to serve as tool in understanding behavior and subsequent optimization of millimeter-wave mixers. Major program in collection is general mixer-analysis program that performs complete large- and small-signal analysis of mixer with known diode and mount characteristics. Primary objective behind programs to gain better understanding of factors that affect performance of room-temperature, single-ended Schottky-diode mixers operating above 100 GHz.
