Patent ID: 7016645

Claim:
An amplifier system ( 1 ) for satellites including: first and second amplifier modules (A 1 , A 2 ) each having an input and an output, a signal divider (D) having an input, a first output, and a second output, a signal combiner (C) having a first input, a second input and an output, said first output of said divider (D) being connected to said input of said first amplifier module (A 1 ) via a connection length Le 1 , said second output of said divider (D) being connected to said input of said second amplifier module (A 2 ) via a connection length Le 2 , said output of said first amplifier module (A 1 ) being connected to said first input of said combiner (C) via a connection length Ls 1 , said output of said second amplifier module (A 2 ) being connected to said second input of said combiner (C) via a connection length Ls2, and said connection length satisfying the equation Le 1 +Ls 1 =Le 2 +Ls 2 , which system is characterized in that the connection length Ls 1 is different from the connection length Ls 2 .
