""The main objective of this book is to present all relevant information required to design high-efficiency RF and microwave power amplifiers, including well-known and novel theoretical approaches and practical design techniques." - Microwave Journal, November 2007"

Reseña del editor:

Combining solid theoretical discussions with practical design examples, this book is an essential reference on developing RF and microwave switchmode power amplifiers.

With this book you will be able to:

• Design high-efficiency RF and microwave power amplifiers on different types of bipolar and field-effect transistors using well-known and novel theoretical approaches, nonlinear simulation tools, and practical design techniques
• Design any type of high-efficiency switchmode power amplifiers operating in Class D or E at lower frequencies and in Class E or F and their subclasses at microwave frequencies, with specified output power
• Understand the theory and practical implementation of load-network design techniques based on lumped and transmission-line elements
• Combine multi-stage Doherty architecture and switchmode power amplifiers to significantly increase efficiency of the entire radio transmitter
• Learn the different types of predistortion linearization techniques required to improve the quality of signal transmission in a nonlinear amplifying system

New to this edition:

• Comprehensive overview of different Doherty architectures which are, and will be used in modern communication systems to save power consumption and reduce costs
• A new chapter on analog and digital predistortion techniques
• Coverage of broadband Class-F power amplifiers, high-power inverse Class-F power amplifiers for WCDMA systems, broadband Class-E techniques

• Unique focus on switchmode RF and microwave power amplifiers that are widely used in cellular/wireless, satellite and radar communication systems and which offer major power consumption savings
• Complete coverage of the new Doherty architecture which offers major efficiencies and savings on power consumption
• Balances theory with practical implementatation, avoiding a cookbook approach, enabling engineers to develop better designs
• Trusted content from leading figures in the field with a Foreword of endorsement by Zoya Popovic
