Combining solid theoretical discussions with practical design examples, this book is an essential reference on developing RF and microwave switchmode power amplifiers.
With this book you will be able to:
- Design high-efficiency RF and microwave power amplifiers on different types of bipolar and field-effect transistors using well-known and novel theoretical approaches, nonlinear simulation tools, and practical design techniques
- Design any type of high-efficiency switchmode power amplifiers operating in Class D or E at lower frequencies and in Class E or F and their subclasses at microwave frequencies, with specified output power
- Understand the theory and practical implementation of load-network design techniques based on lumped and transmission-line elements
- Combine multi-stage Doherty architecture and switchmode power amplifiers to significantly increase efficiency of the entire radio transmitter
- Learn the different types of predistortion linearization techniques required to improve the quality of signal transmission in a nonlinear amplifying system
New to this edition:
-
Comprehensive overview of different Doherty architectures which are, and will be used in modern communication systems to save power consumption and reduce costs
-
A new chapter on analog and digital predistortion techniques
-
Coverage of broadband Class-F power amplifiers, high-power inverse Class-F power amplifiers for WCDMA systems, broadband Class-E techniques
-
Unique focus on switchmode RF and microwave power amplifiers that are widely used in cellular/wireless, satellite and radar communication systems and which offer major power consumption savings
-
Complete coverage of the new Doherty architecture which offers major efficiencies and savings on power consumption
-
Balances theory with practical implementatation, avoiding a cookbook approach, enabling engineers to develop better designs
-
Trusted content from leading figures in the field with a Foreword of endorsement by Zoya Popovic
