چکیده

In this study, balanced and single ended class-E power amplifiers (PAs) were designed and realized for 3.5–3.8GHz band by using Gallium Nitride high electron mobility transistor (GaN HEMT). Realizations were made on low loss Rogers RT5880 dielectric material which has 0.254mm thickness and 2.2 dielectric constant. Proposed balanced class-E PA has approximately 20W (43 dBm) output power with 80% peak power added efficiency (PAE) and shows a very favorable combination of output power, PAE and suppressed even order harmonics compared to the single ended class-E PA prototype.

Design of X Band High Power Amplifier MMIC Based on AlGaN/GaN HEMT

In this paper, we have presented an X band high power amplifier based on MMIC (Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit) technology for satellite remote sensing systems. We have used GaN HEMT process with 500 nm gate length technology with VD= 40 V and VG= -2 V in class E structure. The proposed two-stage power amplifier provides 25 dB power gain with maximum output power of 49.3 dBm at 10 GHz. ...

MMIC class-F power amplifiers using field-plated GaN HEMTs

Abstract: Class-F microwave monolithic integrated circuit (MMIC) power amplifiers (PA) fabricated in a GaN technology are reported. Field-plated GaN HEMT devices are used for highpower performance. Two MMICs are reported. The first class-F MMIC PA operating at 2.0GHz achieved a power-added efficiency (PAE) of 50% with 38dBm output power and 6.2W/mm power density. A second class-F PA operating a...

Novel Approach to Design of a Class-EJ Power Amplifier Using High Power Technology

This article proposes a new method for application in communication circuit systems that increase efficiency, PAE, output power and gain in the circuit. The proposed method is based on a combination of switching class-E and class-J and has been termed class-EJ. This method was investigated using both theory and simulation to confirm ∼72% PAE and output power of >39dBm. The combination and desig...
