Qureshi, J.H. (author), Pelk, M.J. (author), Marchetti, M. (author), Neo, W.C.E. (author), Gajadharsing, J.R. (author), Van der Heijden, M.P. (author), De Vreede, L.C.N. (author)A 90-W peak-power 2.14-GHz improved GaN outphasing amplifier with 50.5% average efficiency for wideband code division multiple access (W-CDMA) signals is presented. Independent control of the branch amplifiers by two in-phase/quadrature modulators enables optimum outphasing and input power leveling, yielding significant improvements in gain,...journal article 2009

Marchetti, M. (author), Pelk, M.J. (author), Buisman, K. (author), Neo, W.C.E. (author), Spirito, M. (author), De Vreede, L.C.N. (author)A new wideband open-loop active harmonic load–pull measurement approach is presented. The proposed method is based on wideband data-acquisition and wideband signal-injection of the incident and device generated power waves at the frequencies of interest. The system provides full, user defined, in-band control of the source and load reflection...journal article 2008

Pelk, M.J. (author), Neo, W.C.E. (author), Gajadharsing, J.R. (author), Pengelly, R.S. (author), De Vreede, L.C.N. (author)A three-way Doherty 100-W GaN base-station power amplifier at 2.14 GHz is presented. Simple, but accurate design equations for the output power combiner of the amplifier are introduced. Mixed-signal techniques are utilized for uncompromised control of the amplifier stages to optimize efficiency, as well as linearity. The combination of the above...journal article 2008
