"RF power amplifiers are implemented in communication, semiconductor wafer processing, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and radar systems to produce RF signal with the desired characteristics to perform several critical tasks in the entire system. They can be designed to operat…
In this PhD. research, a new power amplifier architecture is introduced. This work develops the push-pull architecture into a multifunctional matching network and combiner to create a high power, high efficiency, linear power amplifier (PA) that operates over a wide bandwidth. T…
Amplifiers in the final stages of wireless transmitters boost the power level of the up-converted signals. Unfortunately, the ultimate power level is not the same for all transmitters. This same amplifier can be used as a driver in cellular base stations or as the last stage in …
