摘要
A single-GaNHEMT dual-band power amplifier with a spurious-controlling circuit to improve concurrent amplifying linearity is presented. The behavior of the output power and efficiency characteristics of the dual-band amplifier were analyzed using FET transconductance(g(mi)), and the effects of cross-modulation in concurrent-mode are shown shown. The fabricated 0.8-/2.2- GHz dual-band GaNHEMT amplifier consisting of dual-frequency-band matching circuits showed a deterioration of power response linearity at low input power levels in dual-band concurrent operation. Stubs for short-circuiting second order intermodulation components were added to the input matching circuit and the deterioration of power response linearity was successfully improved.
