Inverse Design of Compact and Wideband Inverted Doherty Power Amplifiers Using Deep Learning

arXiv:2606.27002v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper presents a deep learning-assisted methodology for the inverse synthesis of a compact, wideband inverted Doherty power amplifier (PA). Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and genetic algorithms (GAs) are jointly employed to generate pixelated Doherty combiner networks that integrate load modulation, impedance matching, power combining, and phase compensation into a single structure. As a proof of concept, we design and fabricate a GaN HEMT Doherty PA with a pixelated output combiner. The prototype achieves a measured peak drain effic
The increasing demands for efficiency and performance in communication systems, coupled with advancements in AI and deep learning, makes this a timely development.
This development offers a method to significantly improve the efficiency, compactness, and bandwidth of power amplifiers, crucial components in various communication technologies.
The conventional design process for high-performance power amplifiers can be significantly accelerated and optimized through AI-driven methodologies, potentially leading to faster innovation cycles and better device characteristics.
