Abstract :
With the recent advancement of GaAs MESFET device technology, the power output capability of MESFETs has been increasing steadily. The solid state power amplifiers developed up to the present in C-band to Ku-band frequencies have superior performances and can replace TWT amplifiers in a communication system. SSPA Microwave Corporation 15 watt, 14-14.5 GHz solid state power amplifier which has been developed and manufactured successfully is described
