A radar system designer’s most coveted objectives are achieving a long range, adequate resolution to distinguish objects in close proximity to each other, and the ability to not only determine target velocities but target types in order to help differentiate friendlies from adversaries.A combination of both approaches is essential, and engineers can design for peak power points of the load-pull simulation while also paying attention to other parts of the circuit for baseband signal fidelity.

Join Scott Blum, RF Applications Engineer with Wolfspeed as he discusses how to design areas of a pulsed amplifier circuit to achieve a high degree of pulse fidelity.

As the need for smaller and higher performing radar systems is increasing, GaN on SiC has become the technology of choice for next generation radar systems. This article will discuss GaN on SiC MMIC solutions to thermal concerns for next generation radar systems during continuous wave (CW) operation.
