Direct Extraction of the Nonlinear HEMT Model from Vectorial Large-Signal Measurements
نویسندگان
چکیده
Non-linear models for microwave and millimetre wave devices are commonly based on DC and S-parameter measurements, due to the absence of vectorial large-signal measurements in the past. At present, accurate prototype measurement systems are being developed, which implies that new non-linear modelling techniques can be explored. We will show experimental results of a method that allows the direct extraction of the HEMT's state-functions from vectorial large-signal measurements.

Development of Time Domain Behavioural Non-linear Models for Microwave Devices and Ics from Vectorial Large-signal Measurements and Simulations
We have developed a procedure to determine a behavioural non-linear model for microwave devices and ICs that is directly based on vectorial large-signal measurements. For the examples of a HEMT and an amplifier IC, we represent the terminal currents in the time domain by a dynamic model that is fitted to the embedded terminal voltages. INTRODUCTION The recent availability of vectorial large-sig...

متن کاملStraightforward and Accurate Nonlinear Device Model Parameter- Estimation Method Based on Vectorial Large-Signal Measurements
To model nonlinear device behavior at microwave frequencies, accurate large-signal models are required. However, the standard procedure to estimate model parameters is often cumbersome, as it involves several measurement systems (dc, vector network analyzer, etc.). Therefore, we propose a new nonlinear modeling technique, which reduces the complexity of the model generation tremendously and onl...
