Apparatus, methods and articles of manufacture for output impedance matching in multi-band power amplification are provided, wherein an output matching configuration comprising one or more output matching sections, a multi-band diplexer and a switch are connected to an active device.

Apparatus, methods and articles of manufacture for output impedance matching using multi-band signal processing

A system for efficient power amplification of an electromagnetic signal includes a switchplexer having at least two inputs and an output. The switchplexer may be configured to provide communication between a selected switchplexer input and the switchplexer output. The system also may include two or more amplifier stages, each having an input and an output, and one or more output matching circuits. Each of the output matching circuits may include an input in communication with one of the amplifier stage outputs, as well as an output in communication with one of the switchplexer inputs. A control unit may be configured to control selection of the selected switchplexer input and to selectively activate at least one of the amplifier stages.

Efficient power amplification system

A method of processing an electromagnetic wave comprises regulating at least two independently controllable current sources with a signal determined from at least one characteristic of the electromagnetic wave to generate a processed electromagnetic wave from at least one of the independently controllable current sources.

Apparatus, methods and articles of manufacture for processing an electromagnetic wave

Apparatus, methods and articles of manufacture for multiband transmitter power amplification are provided wherein one or more amplifying devices, of which at least one may be one or more current sources, have impedances matched for different input and output frequencies by way of various impedance matching circuits.

Apparatus, methods and articles of manufacture for multiband signal processing

A tuned switching power amplifier having a switch for receiving an AC input signal. The switch controls the application of DC power to a load through a load network. The load network develops a parallel inductance and a parallel capacitance across the switch that minimizes power losses associated with the switch by creating a transient response across the switch that insures that, when the switch transitions from on to off, the voltage across the switch remains low until the current trough the switch reaches zero, and that, when the switch transitions from off to on, the voltage across the switch is zero and has a substantially zero time derivative prior to when the switch transitions from off to on. The parallel inductance is developed by a transmission line of a determined electrical length.
