Power amplifiers guzzle power. At a time when there is
considerable pressure to be more green and to reduce the costs of
a system by developing technologies that are energy efficient,
this book is particularly relevant because it focuses on energy
efficient amplifiers, namely, switch mode amplifiers. These
amplifiers are at the heart of cellular/wireless communications
systems, being used for the transmitter but are also widely used
for satellite and radar communications. This book gives engineers
all they need to know to use RF and microwave power amplifiers,
balancing theory with practical examples of implementation,
enabling them to understand design issues and trade-offs and
improve their future designs.
