MOTIVATION• Power amplifiers are used in many applications likes,
transmitting antenna and Ranging transponder. The transmitter–receivers are used not only for voice and data communication but also for sensing in the form of a radar.
• Indian Regional Navigational Satellite System (IRNSS) is a regional satellite navigation system owned by the Indian government. The system is being developed by Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO).
• There are two types of transponder is used in IRNSS: Navigation transponder Ranging transponder• In ranging transponder, Power Amplifier is used in Satellite.
So, I will design a Power Amplifier at 3.4GHz.

OBJECTIVE
• To Study , Design and Development of Power Amplifier at 3.4GHz frequency for Ranging transponder and select Optimum design for performance.
5
INTRODUCTION• Today there are many categories of amplifiers used for
multiple purposes. In simple terms an amplifier picks up a weak signal and converts it into a strong one.
• It is widely used in several devices to boost electrical signals. Radios, televisions and telephones are a few examples to point out in this regard.
• The main function of power amplifier is amplify the power which is used in various application.

IMPEDANCE MATCHING
In electronics, impedance matching is the practice of designing the input impedance of an electrical load or the output impedance of its corresponding signal source to maximize the power transfer or minimize the signal reflection from the load.
There are two types of Impedance matching: (1) Input matching (2) Output matching
16
INPUT MATCHING• For matching the source and transistor, Input matching
network is required.• Input matching network can be design by using SmGamm
Function in ADS tool.L1= 1.4 nH C1= 0.5 pFZ= 38.543-J*8.428 Ohm
Fig 4 Input Matching[ADS screenshot]
17
OUTPUT MATCHING• For matching the load and transistor, Output matching network is required.• Output matching network can be design by using SmGamma Function in
ADS tool.L1=0.5 nH C1=2.85 pFZ=4.878+J*4.178 Ohm

BIASING NETWORK• As per Transistor datasheet , recommended condition of biasing
network are VCE=5,10VIC=240,300mA.
• Consider the simple bipolar NPN shown in Fig. consisting of a transistor and three resistors. To function correctly the amplifier should produce at its output, an amplified version of the signal at its input without distortion.

Table 6 Biasing Circuit Network Parameter
24
HARMONIC BALANCE• Due to this output signal contains fundamental frequency
components and some undesired frequency components, which are integral multiple of input signal frequency. These additional frequency components are called harmonics. Hence the output is said to be distorted, this is called harmonic distortion.• 1st Order Harmonic
