About This Book

Switchmode RF and Microwave Power Amplifiers, Third Edition is an essential reference book on developing RF and microwave switchmode power amplifiers. The book combines theoretical discussions with practical examples, allowing readers to design high-efficiency RF and microwave power amplifiers on different types of bipolar and field-effect transistors, 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, also providing techniques on how to design multiband and broadband Doherty amplifiers using different bandwidth extension techniques and implementation technologies.

This book provides the necessary information to understand the theory and practical implementation of load-network design techniques based on lumped and transmission-line elements. It brings a unique focus on switchmode RF and microwave power amplifiers that are widely used in cellular/wireless, satellite and radar communication systems which offer major power consumption savings.

  • Provides a complete history of high-efficiency Class E and Class F techniques
  • Presents a new chapter on Class E with shunt capacitance and shunt filter to simplify the design of high-efficiency power amplifier with broader frequency bandwidths
  • Covers different Doherty architectures, including integrated and monolithic implementations, which are and will be, used in modern communication systems to save power consumption and to reduce size and costs
  • Includes extended coverage of multiband and broadband Doherty amplifiers with different frequency ranges and output powers using different bandwidth extension techniques
  • Balances theory with practical implementation, avoiding a cookbook approach and enabling engineers to develop better designs, including hybrid, integrated and monolithic implementations
