Abstract
In this paper, The 3rd-IMD of class-F power amplifier is improved using CMRC structure in order to remove the parasitic End harmonic at the output load of class-F power amplifier. The total size is very small more than class-F power amplifier using PBG. (Photonicband Gap) structure during improved 3rd-IMD characteristic performance.
