Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, for the Doherty power amplifier of the related art, for the monolithic microwave integrated circuit, the power divider and the quarter-wavelength transmission line of the traditional Doherty power amplifier are all too large in size and difficult to realize on the chip.
At the same time, the bandwidth of the quarter-wavelength transmission line is limited, which is very unfavorable for the design of broadband amplifiers

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of circuit technology, in particular to a wideband Doherty power amplifier. Background technique [0002] In order to make full use of spectrum resources and increase the data transmission rate in modern wireless communication systems, the peak-to-average ratio (PAPR) signal format is adopted for modulation signals. High peak-to-average ratio signals impose strict requirements on the linearity of RF power amplifiers. In order to ensure the undistorted transmission of the signal, the wireless communication system requires the RF power amplifier to work in a power back-off state far away from the power compression point, so as to ensure the linear amplification of the RF signal. However, RF power amplifiers are often designed for a fixed power supply voltage, the load impedance is optimized at the maximum output power, and the efficiency is very low when the power is backed off. In order to improve the efficiency of R...
