Abstract :
Modern high power amplifiers for communication purposes in satellites will consist of solid-state power amplifier subsystems with integrated predistortion linearizer (SSPA) and short travelling wave tube (STWT). In this contribution the design of monolithic integrated chip sets for SSPAs is described. The MMICs will be employed in the C-band range (3.4-4.3 GHz) and in the Ku-band range (10.7-12.7 GHz).
