Abstract
The ability of the Gummel Poon model to predict HBT ACPR is investigated. It is shown that with proper parameter extraction, the Gummel Poon model is capable of predicting ACPR for NADC and O-QPSK CDMA. Several examples of measured versus modeled performance are given along with a detailed discussion of the parameter extraction methodology.
