POWER AMPLIFIER WITH LINEARIZATION
An amplifier, communication device and method of amplification are disclosed. An RF signal is amplified by a Doherty power amplifier (DPA). The DPA has a main amplifier with a Class-AB amplifier in parallel with a Class-C amplifier. When the RF signal power is smaller than 6 dB PBO, the Class-AB amp...

Zusammenfassung: | An amplifier, communication device and method of amplification are disclosed. An RF signal is amplified by a Doherty power amplifier (DPA). The DPA has a main amplifier with a Class-AB amplifier in parallel with a Class-C amplifier. When the RF signal power is smaller than 6 dB PBO, the Class-AB amplifier provides the main amplifier amplification; when the RF signal is between 6 dB PBO and 0 dB PBO, both the Class-AB and Class-C amplifiers provide the main amplifier amplification. |
