Title :
A Quasi-Linear Approach to the Design of Microwave Transistor Power Amplifiers
Abstract :
A simple graphical technique similar to the conventional Linvill technique has been developed which specifies the added-power circuit efficiency of a microwave transistor power amplifier with arbitrary load termination. Experimental verification of this approach has been obtained with a 1 W BJT amplifier operating at 1.3 GHz.
