A multibias approach for HEMT small-signal model extraction is proposed. The method is based on scaling rules and uses a hybrid direct extraction/particle swarm optimization approach. By the use of a reduced number of S-parameter measurements in the optimization procedure, the computational effort is kept low. The extraction procedure is verified with measurements on metamorphic HEMTs, leading to accurate and scalable models in the millimeter-wave range. Furthermore, the robustness of the proposed method against measurement uncertainties is verified by using PHEMT synthetic data, intentionally affected by errors
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
