Abstract :
A method is described for accurately predicting nonlinear microwave performance of GaAs MESFET devices. The method utilizes time-domain analysis and is based upon experimentally characterized bias-dependence of device circuit model elements. Precise predictions are made of fundamental and harmonic power levels up to 6 dB of gain compression.
