Multimode multiband power amplifier with tapped transformer for efficiency enhancement in low power mode
Multimode multiband connectivity has become a defacto requirement for smartphones with 3G WCDMA/4G LTE applications. In this research, a two-stage multimode multiband (MMMB) power amplifier (PA) with multiple gated transistor (MGTR) and configurable tapped transformer is designed and analysed in vie...

description | Multimode multiband connectivity has become a defacto requirement for smartphones with 3G WCDMA/4G LTE applications. In this research, a two-stage multimode multiband (MMMB) power amplifier (PA) with multiple gated transistor (MGTR) and configurable tapped transformer is designed and analysed in view of enhancing the efficiency in low power mode. The designed MMMB PA offers a 900MHz of operating bandwidth starting from the frequency of 1400MHz up to 2300MHz, covering 16 LTE FDD bands with peak output power of 27.8dBm and peak PAE of 31% in the high power mode. In low power mode, the PA offers the same bandwidth with peak output power of 25.5dBm and PAE of 30%. Use of the multiple gated transistor with tapped transformer for matching has increased the PAE in low power mode by 19% compared with that PAE in the high power mode. |
