Abstract :
A physically based model is used to predict the S and Y-parameters of the high electron mobility transistor as function of the applied gate bias and the operating frequency. The model is used to estimate the power gain and the maximum stable gain characteristics for HEMTs with different physical and structural parameters which helps in the optimization of the amplifier design
