Abstract

The invention provides a method for widening the bandwidth of a Doherty power amplifier and the Doherty power amplifier improved with the method. The Doherty power amplifier comprises a bandwidth power distributor module, a bandwidth input matching network module, a main power amplifier, a peak value power amplifier, a bandwidth output matching network module, a compensation line module and an impedance converter module, wherein the compensation line module comprises a compensation line of a main power amplifier branch and a compensation line of the peak value power amplifier branch, the compensation line of the main power amplifier branch converts load impedance into an optimal load impedance point in a lower power state; the compensation line of the peak value power amplifier branch enables the output impendence of the peak value power amplifier to present infinity and prevents the power of the main amplifier from being leaked to the peak value power amplification branch in a low power state. According to the invention, the bandwidth of the Doherty power amplifier can be widened and the returning efficiency of the Doherty power amplifier can be improved, load conditioning can be better achieved, the Doherty power amplifier can be applied to a multi-module base station and software radio, and energy conservation and cost reduction are facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of wireless communication, and in particular relates to a Doherty power amplifier applied in future wireless communication systems. Background technique [0002] In wireless communication systems, the role of power amplifiers in transmitters is becoming more and more important, and bandwidth and efficiency are always two key factors of power amplifiers. In the future, the capacity of wireless communication systems will continue to expand. In order to ensure that the amount of information carried is large enough and has a certain anti-noise capability, it is necessary to perform high-order complex modulation on the signal, which results in a very high peak-to-average ratio of the signal. For signals with a peak-to-average ratio, the efficiency of the saturated operating point of the power amplifier is not of great practical significance. Only by improving the overall efficiency in a certain power fallback are...
