Abstract-Multiband power amplifier (PA) has become a crucial requirement for mobile communication systems that operate in variety bandwidth ranges along with different frequencies and output power. Replacement of more than two power amplifiers (PAs) by a single wideband PA is required to minimize power consumption and the chip size. This paper proposes, a wideband PA withfiltered matching network (FMN) to provide a wider bandwidth while improving linearity by harmonic suppression. The proposed matching network offers an operating bandwidth of 1.47GHz from the frequency 900MHz towards 2370MHz, covering 24 LTE frequency bands. The frequency range is achieved at maximum output power of 27.5dBm with linear power of 26dBm at 1-dB point. The ACLR value of -34dBc is achieved at 1-dB output power which is within the requirement of LTE linearity specification.Keyword -Adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR), bandwidth, filtered matching network (FMN), matching network, power amplifier, output power. The data rate of mobile network is mainly influenced by transmission of power between the base stations and mobile communication systems. Thus the transmitted power plays a key role in providing high data rate which mainly depends on power amplifiers linearity [14]-[21]. On the other hand, the nonlinearity of the power amplifiers is contributed by the increase of peak to average power ratio (PAPR) of the modulating signals that are adopted to achieve high data rate through the mobile network [22]-[25]. Therefore, a power amplifier with wider bandwidth and improved efficiency requirements is ensured by incorporating an appropriate matching network [26]-[32]. This means that wide bandwidth of PA is required to be maintained while satisfying other parameters simultaneously. This paper presents an on-chip single wideband power amplifier through impedance
