IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON MICROWAVE THEORY AND TECHNIQUES, VOL. 60, NO. 12, DECEMBER 2012 4107 Design of Broadband Highly Efcient Harmonic-Tuned Power Amplier Using In-Band Continuous Class-F F Mode Transferring Kenle Chen, Student Member, IEEE, and Dimitrios Peroulis, Member, IEEE Abstract—A novel methodology for designing high-frequency as its parallel capacitor cannot be fully charged or discharged broadband harmonic-tuned power ampliers (PAs) is presented in to support the ideal drain waveforms, leading to an efciency this paper. Specically, a hybrid PA mode, transferring between degradation [6]. continuous inverse Class-F and continuous Class-F, is for the rst time employed to design PAs with optimal performance
