摘要
This paper presents the design and the applications of dual-band microwave power amplifiers using GaN transistors. First, a dual-band power amplifier using dual-band transmission line (TL) impedance matching networks, which can simultaneously match two different complex impedances to 50 Omega at two uncorrelated frequencies, is introduced. Secondly, design of a dual-band GaN based Doherty power amplifier (DPA) is presented in this paper. The dual-band DPA is based on a simplified DPA structure and wideband matching networks. The simplified DPA structure eliminates the 35 Omega quarter wavelength impedance inverters used in the conventional DPAs by matching the output impedances of the carrier and peak amplifiers of the DPA to other values (e.g. 100 Omega).
