  • Abstract
    In 2005, the MTT-S High Power Amplifier Technical Coordinating Committee (MTT-5) decided to sponsor a Student High Efficiency Power Amplifier Design Competition with measurements and awards taking place at the International Microwave Symposium. The reasoning behind the contest was to attract students to the study of microwave electronics by providing them with an exciting challenge, make them aware of the importance of RF and microwave technology in our lives, and to encourage its study thus providing graduates with the skills needed by the job market and our society.
