Automatic Methodology for Wideband Power Amplifier Design

Broadband RF Power Amplifier Design Methodology Using Sequential Harmonic Characterization

Radio Frequency Power Amplifier (RFPA) amplifies the communication signals to the required power level for transmission. It is the most power consuming stage in a transceiver chain; consequently, any improvement in terms of dissipated power and efficiency of the power amplifier affects the overall power budget of the transmitter. Also, efficient performance of the RF power amplifier over extend...
