| Abstract(in English) | An X-band low noise amplifier utilizing High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMT) has been developed for the Usuda Deep Space Tracking Station of the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS). Appropriate HEMT's have been selected among the commercially available FET devices by examining noise performance and stability at cryogenic temperatures. The amplifier has been designed using the device parameters at room temperature, then been adjusted and tuned at 77K, and finally been cooled to 15K to confirm and judge its performance. A noise temperature of 6-7K in the amplifier unit and 10K in the amplifier system, have been achieved by this approach. The amplifier has been operating for the tracking of ISAS's Mars explorer NOZOMI at Usuda 64m antenna site. |
