This paper presents the design method, properties and driving techniques of a linear 0.5 W 1 GHz LDMOS power amplifier used in a supply modulated envelope tracking transmitter with real-time predistortion. Causes of nonlinearities are identified, and various supply voltage drives are experimented. Measured results show that the power efficiency can be improved while maintaining high linearity.
