Hello all,
I am working on single diode frequency multiplier. Could anyone please tell (with reference) what is the relationship between return losses of the multiplier and conversion loss.
If the input is matched to the diode impedance, more power will be delivered to it, this implies less return loss at the input and less conversion loss. If output impedance is also matched then overall the return loss at the output should be low.
However, I am getting high return losses and low conversion loss. Isn't it weird? I have used transmission lines for matching.
Thanks in advance.
Can this be due to the insertion loss as stated in **broken link removed**
Thanks in advance.
