Abstract
SummaryIn order to ensure that the electromagnetic compatibility and mutual interference of multiple radar network systems meet the requirements, a 55‐W gallium nitride (GaN) high harmonics suppression (HSs) high power amplifier (HPA) microwave monolithic integrated circuit (MMIC) with an operating frequency of 5.1–6.3 GHz is designed for radar network system. An HSs method using self‐resonant capacitor integrated in the output matching network of HPA is proposed to improve the HSs characteristics. The measured results show that under the condition of 100‐μs pulse width and 10% duty cycle, the HSs are greater than 48 dBc while the output power is greater than 55 W, the power gain is 21 dB, and the power additional efficiency (PAE) is 54%, which is suitable for use in radar network system. The size of the HPA is 3.55 × 4.05 mm2.
