Abstract

In this article a class AB single-ended power amplifier with 30-512 MHz frequency band and 100 W saturated output power has been designed and implemented using a GaN transistor. The measured compressed gain is 19 ± 1 dB, the average PAE is 61% and the return loss is always better than −7.5 dB.
