Usually, an explicit time scheme has the stability constraint on small grid size. Though the implicit time scheme is unconditionally stable, it has a necessary expense of computing the global system at each time iteration. To alleviate the expensive computational cost, a new explicit-implicit hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin time-domain method that combines the explicit DGTD (exDGTD) method and our former imHDGTD method will be proposed for the first time. Here let’s call it exDGTD-imHDGTD (ex-imHDGTD). This letter gives its implementation, including a new transmission condition. Unlike the traditional explicit–implicit methods, imHDGTD is used to replace traditional implicit algorithms for the refined region, which leads to a remarkable reduction of degrees of freedom (DOFs) and a better matrix solving ability. Numerical results show that the proposed ex–imHDGTD is very effective both on accuracy and performance.","PeriodicalId":13130,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Microwave and Wireless Components Letters","volume":"32 1","pages":"1263-1266"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49404782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the presented mixer exhibits an excellent performance with low CL in comparison with that of a normal subharmonic mixer (SHM).

This method selects the impedance value of the transistor device through the load–pulling system. Then, matching networks composed of a cascade of microstrip lines are used to match the device impedance to 50 $Omega $ . The matching networks are optimized to provide the desired impedance transfer characteristic at multiple frequencies. This design approach effectively reduces the amplifiers’ output impedance variation over the covered frequency range. The overall structure of the PA is simple, and the bandwidth is expanded while ensuring performance. Based on this method, a broadband PA was designed and fabricated using the self-developed laterally-diffused metal-oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) transistor of the Institute of Microelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The measurement results show that the saturated output power of the designed PA in the range of 0.5–2.3 GHz is greater than 41 dBm. The drain efficiency is 43.62%–55.38%.
