Analyzing and Optimizing the EIRP of a Phase-Tunable Amplifier-Antenna Array

We analyze the performance of an amplifier-antenna array by using separately measured amplifier load-pull data and antenna S-parameters and port-specific radiation patterns. We show that the effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) of the system can be improved by using phase values which differ fr...
