“…To increase the efficiency of PA at PBOs, various techniques are developed, such as envelop tracking (ET) [1], [2], outphasing [3]- [7], Doherty [8]- [13], load modulation [14], [15], and Class-G [16], [17]. To further improve the PA efficiency at deep PBO, the multi-way combined Doherty PA with switched transformer [18], Class-G Doherty [19]- [21], subharmonic switching (SHS) [22]- [24], and hybrid Doherty with impedance boosting [25] are developed. The multi-way combined PA with switched transformer introduces various efficiency peaks due to the load modulation [18], which suffers from relatively large circuit size and limited passive efficiency.…”
