Abstract
Microwave power transmission is one of the key technologies to realize solar power satellite. In this paper, the authors design a high efficiency GaN Class-F power amplifier at 2.45GHz. Power added efficiency is up to 78.8% and output power is 40.3dBm in simulation. Simulated results predict high performance of the proposed PA.
