Multiplexers are microwave products designed to add signals received from several
microwave amplifiers in one output channel. There are no domestic analogues of these devices,
and foreign analogues are Multiplexer 4-1/C (C-band), and Multiplexer 3-1/X (X-band) from
«COM DEV International» (Canada). The basis of the design of the output multiplexers of onboard radio-electronic complexes of space communication systems is waveguide narrow-band
microwave filters of high power levels.
