Abstract

A radio frequency (RF) amplifier structure provides highly efficient RF signal amplification across a wide bandwidth, when implemented in both inverting and non-inverting Doherty designs, by employing matching impedance transform circuits that comprise a low pass multiple section inductance-capacitance circuit and that provides impedance matching between the output of an amplifier device and a power combiner, wherein the output matching impedance transform circuit has approximately an odd multiple of 90 electrical degrees over the RF amplifier structure's frequency range of operation, and adjustable phase delay circuits that route an amplified RF signal to the power combiner and that are controllably adjusted based on a frequency of an RF input signal over an operating frequency range of the RF amplifier structure.
