Gain compensation circuit

Abstract

A gain compensation circuit comprises a first amplifier, a second amplifier, a filter, a first attenuator, a second attenuator and a third attenuator. The first amplifier is configured to amplify an input signal of the microwave signal processor. The filter is disposed between the first and second amplifiers. The first attenuator is disposed between the first amplifier and the filter for reducing return loss of the microwave signal processor. The second attenuator is disposed between the second amplifier and the filter for reducing return loss of the microwave signal processor. The third attenuator is electrically connected to the output of the second amplifier for reducing noise figure of the microwave signal processor and providing first and second gain compensations. The first gain compensation keeps the gain of the microwave signal processor constant under various temperatures, and the second gain compensation adjusts a nominal gain of the microwave signal processor.
