Abstract
In the theoretical study in Chapter 12 it was assumed that there was complete decoupling between the pump circuit and the output circuit. It was seen that this decoupling could not be obtained simply by filtering, and that a differential structure was required. It is proposed in this chapter to study the problems involved in the production of this decoupling, which will be referred to also as balancing of the bridge or of the input head. In principle only the output circuit having the filter tuned to ω p must be in common to the two branches of the differential structure. The relative position, in every branch and in the combination of the branches of the varactor, of the pump circuit and of the input filter (which can also be tuned to ω p ) determine ten principal variants to the base circuit of Fig. 12.3, every one having its dual.
