Abstract
Abstract This paper presents a novel structure of Hybrid Power Amplifier (HPA) to operate in two arbitrary classes of operation at two desirable frequencies. The proposed HPA is designed in concurrent F&F−1 classes, simultaneously for 5G application. Presented HPA can solve the harmonics interference problem for concurrent F and F−1 classes and also for any arbitrary class of operation in desired frequencies. The designed HPA operates at 1.5 GHz frequency in the F class mode, while operates at 2.1 GHz frequency in the F−1 class mode. A new method is presented by using two diplexers to provide two paths for signal in different frequencies. Two parallel paths are used at the output of the HPA circuit, so the proposed HPA can operate at two classes. Two diplexers are used in the HPA to make proper isolation between the designed paths. In design of the proposed HPA, according to the utilized diplexers, the amplifier can operate between two arbitrary classes of operation at desired frequencies without any specific switch. The measured drain efficiency (DE) and power added efficiency (PAE) parameters are 57 and 51%, respectively at 2.1 GHz, while measured DE and PAE are 64 and 54%, respectively at 1.5 GHz.
