In this design, two resonant modes are excited to provide two operating bands at 3.5 and 5.06 GHz, respectively. Lower operating band is caused by dielectric resonator (DR), while higher operating band is achieved by the slotlines. Consequently, a dual-band FDRA without involving extra filtering circuits is obtained and simulated.

The proposed PA is composed of a packaged GaN device, an input / output radio frequency (RF) signal matching network, as well as a DC bias network. The optimal output load is optimized after a trade-off between achieving a high output power and a high power added efficiency (PAE). As the transistor is not unconditionally stable, stabilization has been taken into account in the DC bias network design in such a way that the RF performance is minimally affected. Finally, the layout is finely tuned in order to optimize the interconnection parasitics and to minimize the performance degradation.
