Application of New Matching Technique in Doherty Amplifier

چکیده
According to the shortage of the traditional offset line in Doherty power amplifier, a new offset line technique is proposed to match carrier amplifier with the load and to improve the performance of the Doherty amplifier. By simulation of the computer software, a higher efficiency is obtained using the new offset line comparing the two kinds of offset lines. The new offset line technique could be applied in the system with high linearity and low power operation. Copyright © 2013 IFSA.

متن کاملA New Ultra-Wideband Low Noise Amplifier With Continuous Gain Control
This paper presents a new variable gain low noise amplifier (VG-LNA) for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications. The proposed VG-LNA uses a common-source (CS) with a shunt-shunt active feedback as an input stage to realize input matching and partial noise cancelling. An output stage consists of a gain-boosted CS cascode and a gain control circuit that moves the high resonant frequency to higher freq...
