The amplifier circuit is designed by using Cree GaN (Gallium Nitride) HEMT (High Electrom Mobility Transistor) CGH25120F transistor under class-A configuration scheme. The design and simulation using harmonic balanced simulator and load-pull method results an amplifier with power gain of 16.166 dB with PAE (Power-Added Efficiency) of 16.778%. The RF power amplifier can produce output power of 41.163 dBm with S11 and S22 less than 5dB in 30MHz bandwidth. Mixed-signal simulation also has been carried-out by using QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) modulation scheme at 150 Mbps bit rate.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Amplifier circuits,Design and simulation,Load pull,LTE TDD,Mixed-signal simulation,Modulation schemes,Power-added efficiency,RF power amplifiers[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Load pull,LTE TDD,QPSK,RF Power Amplifier[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/ISESD.2017.8253356[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
