Abstract

The Doherty power amplifier (DPA) with cascaded peaking cells is reported.The auxiliary peaking cell at the input of the main peaking cell is employed to enhance the efficiency and linearity of DPA. For the experimental validation, the main DPA and an auxiliary peaking cell are designed using Si LDMOSFETs and a GaN HEMT, respectively. From the measured results, the power‐added efficiency is increased at a 6‐dB back‐off power and the adjacent channel leakage ratio is enhanced over a whole output power range. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In FDM and CDM systems, the peak‐to‐average power ratio (PAPR) increases as the number of signals to be multiplexed is increased. When a signal with a large PAPR is incident on a power amplifier, either the out‐of‐band radiation is increased or the power efficiency is degraded. Methods
