RF Power Amplifier Behavioral Modeling

The Cambridge RF and Microwave Engineering

by Dominique Schreurs (Editor), Máirtín O'Droma (Editor), Anthony A. Goacher (Editor)

If you are an engineer or RF designer working with wireless transmitter power amplifier models, this comprehensive and up-to-date review of nonlinear theory and power amplifier modeling techniques is an absolute must-have. Including a detailed treatment of nonlinear theory, as well as chapters on memory effects, implementation in commercial circuit simulators, and validation, this one-stop reference makes power amplifier modeling more accessible by connecting the mathematics with the practicalities of RF power amplifier design. Uniquely, the book explains how systematically to evaluate a model’s accuracy and validity, compares model types and offers recommendations as to which model to use in which situation.
