  • Abstract
    A simple way of biasing and tuning an X-band m.e.s.f.e.t. for gain expansion is presented. The measured gain and phase of an experimental amplifier make possible a prediction of the third-order intermodulation using a simple power series. The calculated and measured intermodulation are in agreement with each other.
