Frequency Reconfigurable and Linear Power Amplifiers Based on Doherty and Varactor Load Modulation Techniques
In future mobile communication networks, there will be a shift towards higher carrier frequencies and highly integrated multiple antenna systems. The system performance will largely depend on the available RF hardware. As such, RF power amplifiers (PAs) with improved efficiency, linearity, and bandwidth are needed. Dynamic load modulation (DLM) is one of the most common PA efficiency enhancemen...
متن کاملAdvanced design features of Doherty power amplifiers
A Doherty power amplifier (DPA) is an effective structure born in 1936 which, after a scarce revival around year 2000), had been strengthened from 2005 because its capability to combine linear amplification with power efficiency. Despite the conceptual simplicity of its basic operation, a lot of practical drawbacks shrink the theoretical behavior, thus leading a significant number of research w...
متن کاملVaractor-Based Dynamic Load Modulation of High Power Amplifiers
In this work, dynamic load modulation of high power amplifiers using a varactor-based tunable matching network is presented. The feasibility of dynamic tuning and efficiency enhancement of this technique is demonstrated using a modular design approach for two existing high efficiency power amplifiers (PA), a 7-W class-E, and a 10-W class-J power amplifier PA at 1 GHz. For this purpose and for e...
متن کاملEfficiency Enhancement of Base Station Power Amplifiers Using Doherty Technique
The power amplifiers are typically the most power-consuming block in wireless communication systems. Spectrum is expensive, and newer technologies demand transmission of maximum amount of data with minimum spectrum usage. This requires sophisticated modulation techniques, leading to wide, dynamic signals that require linear amplification. Although linear amplification is achievable, it always c...
متن کاملTheory and Design of Wideband Doherty Power Amplifiers
The Doherty power amplifier (DPA) is one of the most popular power amplifier architectures for obtaining high average efficiency for modern communication signals with high peak-to-average power ratios (PAPR). However, the DPA suffers from often having narrowband performance which limits its capabilities in wideband and/or multi-standard microwave and radio frequency applications. In this thesis...
