 As a transmitter low pass filter, ALEX will suppress the harmonic energy typically generated by an RF power amplifier, as well as the images or aliases that appear at the sampling clock frequency (122.8 MHz) plus/minus the operating frequency. The transmit low pass filters will also be used for additional MERCURY receiver input band limiting.
