In this article, the complete theoretical analysis of a Doherty amplifier employing a Class AB bias condition for the Main and a Class C one for the Auxiliary devices, respectively, is presented. Starting from the simplified model of an active device, the analysis of the AB-C Doherty behavior is car

## Abstract A Doherty amplifier is described in which odd harmonics from the classβC peaking amplifier flow to the main amplifier to achieve classβF operation, without the need for complicated space consuming harmonic control circuits. The measured efficiency exceeded 50% above the 6 dB backβoff. T
## Abstract This letter deals with a GaAs monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) Doherty power amplifier (DPA) for Xβband systems.To the best of authors' knowledge, it represents the first DPA realization in the Xβband frequency range. Experimental results showed a 30βdBm saturated output p
