Outphasing Energy Recovery Amplifier With Resistance Compression for Improved Efficiency

Outphasing Energy Recovery Amplifier With Resistance Compression for Improved Efficiency

Show other versions (2)

We describe a new outphasing energy recovery amplifier (OPERA) which replaces the isolation resistor in the conventional matched combiner with a resistance-compressed rectifier for improved efficiency. The rectifier recovers the power normally wasted in the isolation resistor back to the power suppl...
