Abstract
This article presents a millimeter-wave (mm-wave) Doherty-like load modulated balanced amplifier (LMBA) for high-speed wireless communication in a 28-nm bulk CMOS process. The presented architecture is based on a load modulation technique that injects an auxiliary signal into the isolation port a9 0 ◦ power-combining hybrid coupler at the output stage. The injected signal thereby modulates the load impedance at the balanced ports that is seen by the two main power amplifiers (PAs). In contrast to
