Abstract: A wideband power amplifier (PA) linearization technique is proposed. A current interpolation technique is proposed to linearize power amplifiers over a wide bandwidth. The wideband power amplifier linearization technique employs a novel transconductance Gm linearizer using a current interpolation technique that achieves improvement in the third order intermodulation over wide bandwidth for a sub-micron CMOS differential power amplifier. By using a small amount of compensating bias into an opposite phase differential pair, linearization over wide bandwidth is achieved and can be optimized by adjusting the compensating bias.

Abstract: The present invention breaks up the frequency bands which can be filtered by a simple low-loss band-pass or low pass filter. The second harmonic frequency is reduced by use of a non-linear clipper element which controls the driving waveform symmetry and can reduce the harmonics by as much as 5-15 db which makes the filter much simpler and allows the amplifier to remain wide-band. The output waveform from the amplifier is symmetrical or nearly symmetrical.

Abstract: A wideband self-envelope tracking power amplifier (PA) can use more than a 40-MHz channel bandwidth and improves the envelope bandwidth limit of a self-envelope tracking PAs by ten times. The PA uses an envelope load network, which is based on a general multi-stage low-pass filter. The envelope load network located between an RF choke inductor and main DC power supply provides a dynamically modulated PA supply voltage without using a dedicated envelope amplifier. An input terminal of the network connects a main PA via an RF choke inductor to an input of low-pass filter. An output terminal is connected to the low-pass filter via an envelope choke inductor and to a direct current (DC) power supply. A DC blocker is connected between the output of the low-pass filter and ground by a termination resistor.
