Abstract: 

This lecture could be useful for all interested in RF and microwave power amplifier design for communications transceivers (5G, etc.), describing precise and efficient transistor models to achieve “state-of-the-art” amplifier performance. Efficient and linear power amplifiers are critical components in present and future communication, satellite and wireless systems.
