A very high efficient, low distortion C-band MMlC Amplifier using a linear and non-linear models of the PHEMT devices has been developed. Double stage MMlC amplifier fabricated with 2x3.6mm gate width PHEMT and rZxl2mm gate width PHEMT exhibits an output power of 39 dBm at 2dB of gain compression, a linear gain of 27dB and an associated PAE of 42% in the frequency range of 3.5-4.4GHz. These excellent results are performed by developing an exact non-linear model of the PHEMT device and optimizing the matching network of the amplifier.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
