An implementation of the GW approximation (GWA) based on the all-electron projector-augmented-wave (PAW) method is presented, where the screened Coulomb interaction is computed within the random-phase approximation (RPA) instead of the plasmon-pole model. Two different ways of computing the self-energy are reported. The method is used successfully to determine the quasiparticle energies of six semiconducting or insulating materials: Si, SiC, AlAs, InAs, NaH, and KH. To illustrate the method the real and imaginary part of the frequency-dependent self-energy together with the spectral function of silicon are computed. Finally, the GWA results are compared with other calculations, highlighting that all-electron GWA results can differ markedly from those based on pseudopotential approaches.
