“…Class-F PAs can operate with very high efficiency, but they are limited to narrow bandwidths due to the required short and open circuit harmonic terminations. To overcome the bandwidth limitation problem, continuous mode concept has been proposed and demonstrated recently, known as Class-B to Class-J continuum [1], [4] or continuous Class-F [3]. These PA modes exploit a family of the optimal impedance solutions which alleviate the precise harmonic requirements and maintain the expected output power and efficiency as their reference traditional modes.…”

“…Continuous Class B and band limited Class F operation have been experimentally verified by performing RF I-V waveform measurements [8] while varying the fundamental and second harmonic load along the computed coupled fundamental/second harmonic variable reactive impedance loci [7,[9][10][11][12][13]. IV.…”

“…These resulting realized PA prototypes have demonstrated high efficiency operation over a very wide bandwidth [9,12,13]. For example, the prototype PA shown in figure 3 exploited the continuous Class F solution to demonstrate efficiencies of greater than 75% over a frequency range from 0.55 GHz to 0.9 GHz [13].…”
