Practical high-efficiency partial-Envelope Tracking power amplifier system with broadband applications
Spectrally-efficient high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) waveforms exhibit disadvantages compared to constant-envelope waveforms for frequency-agile systems when power-efficiency is paramount. EER and Envelope Tracking offer high efficiency but require precise adjustment and wide bandwidth power supplies/modulators. Frequency agility introduces implementation complexities when systems must tune wide frequency ranges or cover multiple channels. Combining advantages of Envelope Tracking and EER, a partial-envelope tracking power amplifier system demonstrates robust operation across multiple channels, requires no frequency dependent adjustments, and exhibits excellent spectral purity combined with high power-efficiency. Experimental UHF data shows 135 watts of output power with 55% efficiency using LDMOS devices, for uplink WCDMA (approximately 4dB PAPR).
