Abstract :
In this work, the design of a C-band class-AB power amplifier based on the waveform engineering approach is presented. The design leverages the low-frequency characterization of the transistor to obtain the prediction of its optimum operating condition. An exhaustive validation of the realized amplifier fully validates the proposed design technique.
