Input current limited power supply and audio power amplifier for high power reproduction of nondeterministic signals

A method and apparatus for amplifying audio signals without exceeding an input current limit budgeted for the audio power amplifier circuit includes an intermediate energy storage between a battery and the audio power amplifier which provides an energy reserve to support amplifying peaks where the peaks have a peak power that is greater than the power that can be drawn from the battery due to the input current limit. Speech signals, which include substantial periodic content having short peaks relative to a pitch period, can be amplified without depleting the intermediate energy storage, allowing the intermediate energy storage to recover after a peak and before occurrence of a next peak. When an audio signal is amplified that results in depletion of the intermediate energy storage, a depletion recovery circuit reduces the overall audio gain to reduce the power demand of the audio power amplifier so as to substantially avoid distortion.

High gamma compact harmonic tuner

Compact, high Gamma, wideband, multi-carriage-multi-harmonic tuners use a meandering slabline structure and multiple probes and carriages. The meandering structure reduces the overall tuner length by more than half at 0.4 GHz. The required slabline bends are made using a vertical-to-horizontal slabline transition. Multiple probes are employed within the slabline segment closest to the test port, in order to minimize the insertion loss at higher frequencies, caused by the slabline bends. This tuner structure is mostly effective starting at fundamental frequencies below 1 GHz and operating at fundamental or harmonic frequencies as high as 18 GHz.
