[摘要]：A three-way Doherty 100-W GaN base-station power amplifier at 2.14 GHz is presented. Simple, but accurate design equations for the output power combiner of the amplifier are introduced. Mixed-signal techniques are utilized for uncompromised control of the amplifier stages to optimize efficiency, as well as linearity. The combination of the above techniques. resulted in an unprecedented high efficiency over a 12-dB power backoff range, facilitating a record high power-added efficiency for a wideband code division multiple access test signal with high crest factor, while meeting all the spectral requirements for Universal Mobile Telecommunications System base stations. |
