Load 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 کاملDesign of High Efficiency Class E Power Amplifiers
This paper presents a new procedure to design of high efficiency class E power amplifiers (PAs) using nonlinear transistors. The active device (MESFET-ATF34143) has been investigated and load harmonic networks have also been designed to match the requirement. By using the new procedure, the power added efficiency (PAE) of PAs could be increased to over 70%. The effect of the stabilized resistor...

متن کاملA Power Re-Use Technique for Improved Efficiency of Outphasing Microwave Power Amplifiers
An improved power re-use technique is introduced for application to outphased microwave power amplifiers. The technique allows a significant portion of the wasted out-of-phase components of the signal to be returned to the power supply, resulting in substantial improvements in overall power-amplifier efficiency. A peak re-use RF-to-DC efficiency of 63% was obtained at 1.96 GHz.
متن کاملClass-E Power Amplifiers for Pulsed Transmitters
Nowadays the main driving parameters for the radio transmitter research are: energy efficiency, frequency re-configurability and integration. Pulsed transmitter architectures have attracted large interest in the recent years due to their potential to meet these demands. In pulsed transmitters, a highly efficient switch mode power amplifier (SMPA) is used in conjunction with a pulse modulator to...
