✦ Synopsis
A new method for characterization of HEMT distortion parameters, which extracts the coefficents of a Taylor series expansion of I ds (V gs , V ds ), including all cross-terms, is developed from low-frequency harmonic measurements. The extracted parameters will be used either in a Volterra series model around a fixed bias point for 3 rd -order characterization of small-signal I ds nonlinearity, or in a large-signal model of I ds characteristic, where its partial derivatives are locally characterized up to the 3 rd order in the whole bias region, using a novel neural-network representation. The two models are verified by one-tone and two-tone intermodulation distortion (IMD) tests on a PHEMT device.

## Abstract The noise modeling of microwave FETs based on the noise‐wave representation of a transistor‐intrinsic circuit is considered. Frequency‐dependent noise‐wave temperatures are introduced as empirical model parameters and modeled using neural networks. In this way, online optimization in a
Neural networks are proposed for efficient temperature-dependent modeling of small-signal and noise performances of low-noise microwave transistors over a wide temperature range. The proposed models can be based either on neural networks only or on a combination of neural networks and empirical tran
