Load pull characterization

C. Tsironis, T. Williams

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

The Chapter begins with a discussion of the definition of load pull. It goes on to consider scalar and vector load pull, why load pull is needed, load pull methods, reflection on a variable passive load, injection of a coherent (active) signal, impedance tuners, harmonic load pull, fundamental versus harmonic load pull, on wafer integration, base-band load pull, active tuning, and data transfer into CAD and nonlinear models.
