Design of High Efficiency and Linearity Doherty Power Amplifier Using Adaptive Bias Technique and DGS for Wibro Applications

적응형 바이어스 기법과 DGS를 이용한 와이브로용 고효율 고선형 도허티 전력증폭기 설계

In this paper, We play it for the purpose of study about the power amplifier which applied DGS and adaptive bias circuit structure to general Doherty amplifier for the efficiency of a RF power amplifier and a linearity improvement in the WiBro band. As for the IMD3, 3.4dBc was improved with -26.3dBc when we did the measurement result existing Doherty power amplifier and comparison of the Doherty power amplifier which applied an adaptive bias circuit and the DGS which proposed in this paper, and the mean power efficiency verified what was increased in 37%. Also, we were able to know PAE of 36.6% with output power 34.0dBm in P1dB when magnitude of an input signal was 25.6dBm. we did 6dB back off in output P1dB in order to confirm the ACPR which was a nonlinear characteristic and measured the ACPR. we showed the -34.55dBc which was a value of -34.5dBc or below in the 4.77MHz off-set that was a transmission standard. Therefore, we were able to know that we were satisfied with a spectrum mask standard.
