Microwave amplifier design for mobile communication via immittance data modelling

Abstract

In this paper, a practical broadband microwave amplifier design algorithm based on immittance data modelling is presented. In the course of design, first, the optimum input and output terminations for the active device are produced employing the real frequency technique. Then, these terminations are modelled utilizing the new immittance-modeling tool to synthesize the front-end and back-end matching networks. An example is included to exhibit the implementation of the proposed design algorithm to construct a single stage wideband microwave amplifier over a wide frequency band. It is expected that the proposed design algorithm will find applications in the design of microwave amplifiers put on MMIC for mobile communication.
