A 450-W output multiplexer for direct broadcasting satellites
Abstract
The development and design of high power manifold type output multiplexers are described. The results obtained on Invar multiplexers with up to 450-W input power per channel are reported. The multiplexers are equipped with heat pipes in order to remove the heat generated in the filters.
