A Performance Comparison Between W-Band Sequential and Doherty Power Amplifiers for Power Back-Off Efficiency Improvement 150 150

Abstract:

This work presents a W-band sequential power amplifier (PA) featuring a compact and low-loss output combiner that enhances power back-off (PBO) efficiency by combining a main PA and an auxiliary PA through an isolated combining output network. The proposed architecture is analyzed and experimentally compared to the conventional Doherty PA (…
