Abstract
For Ku- and Ka-Band satellite communications (SATCOM), two SiGe:C transformer-based current-combined power amplifiers (PAs) with different damping capabilities against parametric oscillation are presented and compared. Node analysis is conducted and proves its effectiveness of detecting oscillation by the measurement. At the targeted 18.8GHz, the parametric-oscillation-free PA achieves 22.8dBm saturated output power $(P_{\mathrm{sat}})$ with 37.7% power-added-efficiency (PAE).
