Abstract
A Doherty power amplifier having a main power amplification device and an auxiliary power amplification device arranged in parallel with the main power amplification device includes a load modulation circuit having a harmonic injection circuit connected with respective outputs of the main power amplification device and the auxiliary power amplification device. The harmonic injection circuit is arranged to provide a phase shift to simultaneously modulate transfer of second harmonic components generated at the main power amplification device to the auxiliary power amplification device and transfer of second harmonic components generated at the auxiliary power amplification device to the main power amplification device, when the main power amplification device and the auxiliary power amplification device are operated at saturation.
