Abstract
An improved low-cost microwave receiver is disclosed. The receiver is intended for use in the Multipoint Distribution Services (MDS) for the reception of television signals transmitted in the 2 to 2.5 GHz region. The receiver of the present invention is of the single-conversion superheterodyne type utilizing printed circuit and microstrip transmission line construction. Printed circuit board and microstrip transmission line construction permits low-cost fabrication without machined resonant cavities or waveguide components.
