Techniques for Adaptive Input-Power Distribution in Doherty Power Amplifier and Load Modulation of Its Driver-Stage Power Amplifier

Shuichi Sakata et al.

Summary: This paper describes techniques for adaptive input-power distribution in Doherty power amplifier (DPA) using modified Wilkinson power divider and load modulation of its driver-stage PA. These techniques enhance the linearity and efficiency of the two-stage PA with DPA as the final stage. The first technique improves adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) by 9 dB and achieves an average drain efficiency (DE) of 55%, while the second technique confirms a 2.6% efficiency improvement for the two-stage power added efficiency (PAE).
