RF Components & Microwave Solutions

RF components, microwave solutions, and mixed-signal modules engineered to support advanced radar, electronic warfare, and communications systems in aerospace and defense environments.

From components to systems, rugged solutions spanning the spectrum 

To achieve success in an increasingly competitive electronic environment, advanced radar, electronic warfare and communication systems push the limits of what is possible for frequency, bandwidth, and size, weight, and power (SWaP). To meet these emerging challenges, industry must leverage the latest technologies in RF, microwave, and mixed-signal products.

By applying our proven expertise from digital, open-architecture boards to custom microwave solutions, we bring trusted, high-speed performance to mission-critical systems in space-constrained applications.

Types of RF Components and Microwave Technologies

RF components and microwave technologies are critical building blocks within modern radar, electronic warfare, and communication systems. These technologies support signal generation, amplification, filtering, and processing across a wide range of defense and aerospace applications.

Common RF and microwave technologies include:

  • RF amplifiers used to increase signal strength for radar and communication systems
  • RF filters that remove unwanted signals and interference
  • Frequency converters and mixers that shift signals across frequency bands
  • Microwave modules and subsystems used in radar and electronic warfare platforms
  • Mixed-signal technologies that integrate analog and digital signal processing capabilities

These technologies enable high-performance signal processing across mission-critical systems operating in demanding environments.

 

RF and Microwave Solutions for Defense Applications

RF components and microwave systems play a vital role in enabling advanced defense technologies across the electromagnetic spectrum. These solutions support a wide range of mission-critical applications, including:

  • Radar systems used for detection, tracking, and serveillance
  • Electronic warfare (EW) platforms designed to detect, disrupt, and protect against adversary signals
  • Secure communications systems supporting reliable data transmission in contested environments
  • Signals intelligence (SIGINT) platforms used to detect and analyze signals across the spectrum
  • Space and satellite systems requiring high-performance RF and microwave technologies in harsh environments

Mercury's rugged RF and microwave solutions are engineered to meet the demanding performance requirements of these mission-critical systems.
