1. Single Sideband Modulators are
integrated networks composed of an
in-phase power divider, two double
balanced mixers and at least one 90°
quadrature hybrid.
Rejection
Ratio ₃₀
2. The SSP-2 series is suitable for
0 dB
applications where the modulating signal is
0.25
provided together with one in phase
quadrature to it. This permits operation
0.5
down to DC and eliminates the need for a
second 90° quadrature hybrid.

3. Units in the SSP-2 series are suitable
1.0
where the desired and undesired RF
sidebands are too close to be effectively
separated with a simple bandpass filter or
where minimum group delay is required.
