Abstract
Described is a frequency selective limiter (FSL) module comprising a cascade of an FSL and a functional limiter (e.g. a conventional semiconductor limiter comprising a PIN diode) with steady state limiting and power threshold values selected such the FSL module provides suppression of a spike leakage power and while still enabling frequency selective limiting.
Claims1
A frequency selective limiter (FSL) module comprising:
- an RF ferrite-based FSL;
- and
- an RF functional limiter coupled to an output of the ferrite-based FSL, the functional limiter having a power threshold characteristic which is higher than the steady-state limited output power characteristic of the FSL.
