Abstract

A novel amplitude and phase linearizing technique for microwave power amplifiers has been developed. It employs a series feedback amplifier with a large source inductance as a predistortion linearizer, which provides positive amplitude and negative phase deviations for input power and can compensate for AM-AM and AM-PM distortions of power amplifiers. Applying this technique to a 1.9 GHz MMIC power amplifier for use in the Japanese Personal Handy-Phone System (PHS), an improvement of adjacent channel leakage power (ACP) up to 7 dB has been achieved when it is used for /spl pi//4-shift QPSK signal. >
