Abstract
A power amplifier arrangement includes a power divider for dividing the signal to be amplified into equal-amplitude components. Each component is amplified by a signal amplifying path. The amplified signals are applied to a phase-sensitive power combiner. The combined signal appears at the sum port and a phase-related difference signal appears at a difference port of the combiner. The difference signal is processed to produce a control signal for controlling the relative phases of the signals passing through the signal amplifying paths.
