The proposed multi-step calibration approach is based on the phase alignment of the calibration error terms measured with different frequency grids generated by the harmonic phase reference. The method achieves a reduction in the needed multiplication order of the phase reference to cover the intended measurement frequency range. The calibration procedure is implemented on an Agilent PNA-X platform, which uses external hardware extensions, e.g. low frequency bridges, for the accurate measurement of the baseband frequency components.","PeriodicalId":221794,"journal":{"name":"75th ARFTG Microwave Measurement Conference","volume":"175 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124890029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The absolute power and phase calibrations are essential steps in any nonlinear system and they require, in general, cumbersome manual procedures.

Harmonic impedance control at the virtual drain is accomplished through the use of tunable pre-matching circuits and full-wave FEM modeling of package parasitics. A 10-mm gate periphery GaN transistor from TriQuint is characterized using the method, and load-pull contours are presented illustrating the dramatic impact of varying 2nd harmonic termination. A 3rd harmonic termination is added to satisfy conditions for class-F-1 load pull, resulting in an 8% efficiency improvement over the best-case 2nd harmonic termination. The method is verified by design and measurement of a 36-W class-F-1 PA prototype at 2.14GHz with 81% drain efficiency and 14.5 dB gain (78% PAE) in pulsed operation.","PeriodicalId":221794,"journal":{"name":"75th ARFTG Microwave Measurement Conference","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133564076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The original system [1] uses a calibration signal applied off-line and a cancellation loop with a square law detector to measure residual nonlinearities. The approach is improved by replacing the calibration signal with the actual signal transmitted, resulting in an on-line measurement system. A further extension integrates several measurements over the input envelope range to adapt a fourth-order polynomial predistorter. Simulation results for a WCDMA input with a 101 carrier configuration show that the proposed approach for measuring residual nonlinearities and estimating predistortion coefficients is effective.","PeriodicalId":221794,"journal":{"name":"75th ARFTG Microwave Measurement Conference","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117199653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper investigates the challenges incurred when modeling high-power transistors under variable complex impedance matching conditions. It also compares the predicted performance of the X-parameter model against an independent large-signal model provided by the manufacturer for a 10W transistor.

These devices were circulated amongst the nine organizations that chose to participate in the exercise. The comparison took place between August 2008 and September 2009. Results from the exercise are presented in graphical form along with a statistical summary showing average variability for the measurements. The authors believe this is the first time that such a comparison of measurements has been made at these frequencies. These results therefore provide a benchmark for the current state-of-the-art for measurements made in waveguide at these frequencies.","PeriodicalId":221794,"journal":{"name":"75th ARFTG Microwave Measurement Conference","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123834753","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents a method to measure the phase response of a mixer on a VNA using a novel phase-measurement method which can measure the input and output phase response independently, computing the transfer response directly. This method relies on a VNA system which utilizes swept-frequency phase-coherent sources and receivers to maintain a common phase reference. A software phase-locking method allows it to operate on frequency converters which have an in-accessible embedded LO, along with a well established method of calibration.","PeriodicalId":221794,"journal":{"name":"75th ARFTG Microwave Measurement Conference","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130453641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
