Linearity Performance of Outphasing Power Amplifier Systems
As discussed in Chapter 1, in an outphasing power amplifier system, the AM of a bandpass waveform is transformed into PM of two signals prior to power amplification, and finally recovered by recombining the two amplified signals. As shown in Figure 1.16, with this approach, two highly efficient nonlinear power amplifiers can be used without distorting the original signal. This is the main advan...
متن کاملA High-Efficiency Transmission-Line GaN HEMT Class E Power Amplifier
In modern wireless communication systems it is required that the power amplifier could operate with high efficiency, high linearity, and low harmonic output level simultaneously. To increase efficiency of the power amplifier, a switching-mode Class E mode technique can be applied. This kind of a power amplifier requires an operation in saturation mode resulting in a poor linearity, and therefor...
متن کاملA Class E Power Amplifier with Low Voltage Stress
A new output structure for class E power amplifier (PA) is proposed in this paper. A series LC resonator circuit, tuned near the second harmonic of the operating frequency is added to the output circuit. This resonator causes low impedance at the second harmonic. The output circuit is designed to shape the switch voltage of the class E amplifier and lower the voltage stress of the transistor. T...
متن کاملLoad Pull Methodology to Characterize Class-E Outphasing Power Amplifiers
A novel load pull methodology to characterize the performance of class-E outphasing power amplifiers is presented. The traditional analysis of the outphasing topology cannot be applied when classE amplifiers are used because these amplifiers do not behave as an ideal current or voltage source. Unlike most other amplifier classes, class-E amplifiers require a phase modulated input signal with co...
متن کاملClass-E power amplifier and its linearization using analog predistortion
In this paper, power amplifier operating with center frequency of 947.5 MHz, which can be used for the transmitter in beamforming systems, is proposed. The power amplifier implemented provides high power added efficiency (PAE) of 71.967% and low noise figure (NF) as low as 1.525. The linearity of the power amplifier is improved by using square law and cubic law analog predistortion techniques. ...
