Abstract

In this paper, the design of a novel dual-band feedforward linear power amplifier (FFW LPA) is presented. The frequencies of operation of the implemented dual-band FFW LPA are the digital cellular (f0=880MHz) band, and the IMT-2000 (f0=2.14GHz) band, which are separated about 1.26GHz. Using high power amplifiers (120W PEP) for commercial basestation application, the IMD cancellation loop shows 20.45dB and 25.04dB suppression for the cellular and IMT-2000 bands, respectively, over a correction bandwidth of 100MHz. From the adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) measurement with CDMA IS-95A 4FA and WCDMA 4FA signal, we obtained 16.5dB improvement at the average output power of 41.5 dBm for digital cellular band, and 18.6dB improvement at the average output power of 4OdBm for IMT-2000 band under simultaneous operation.
