Abstract :
In this paper, we introduce a method for simulating load-pull characterization of GaAsFET. A procedure has been developed which is capable of searching for the optimum load impedance, calculating output power performance and plotting power contours on the output impedance plane for a GaAsFET in terms of its DC I/V and small signal device model. It can be used in the design of power amplifiers
