60 Watts Broadband Push Pull RF Power Amplifier Using LTCC Technology
(University of Waterloo, 2013-09-27)The continuous increase in wireless usage forces an immense pressure on wireless communication in terms of increased demand and spectrum scarcity. Service providers for communication services had no choice but to allocate ... -
Behavioural Modeling and Linearization of RF Power Amplifier using Artificial Neural Networks
(University of Waterloo, 2010-05-11)Power Amplifiers (PAs) are the key building blocks of the emerging wireless radios systems. They dominate the power consumption and sources of distortion, especially when driven with modulated signals. Several approaches ... -
Mitigation of Memory Effects in High Power Microwave Amplifiers
(University of Waterloo, 2009-09-02)This thesis expounds on the application of Doherty Power Amplifiers (DPA) along with baseband Digital PreDistortion (DPD) techniques to tackle the antagonistic demands of high power efficiency and linearity imposed by ... -
Mixed-Signal Multimode Radio Software/Hardware Development Platform
(University of Waterloo, 2012-12-17)Radio frequency power amplifiers (PAs) are the most challenging part of the design of radio systems since they dictate the overall system's performance in terms of power efficiency and distortion generation. The performance ...
