Abstract
This paper explores the use of the Cardiff non-linear behavioral model to characterize the response of multiple-input power amplifiers. In particular, a case study is presented on a 300 W load modulated balanced amplifier operating at 2.1 GHz. The model mathematical formulation is presented, and the comparison between original data and model shows an error below 3%. More importantly, it is shown that the model can accurately interpolate between characterization points allowing a reduction of up to 96% of the points needed to accurately predict the model behavior. This significantly reduces the simulation and measurement time for multiple-input PA's whilst attempting to determine the optimal driving conditions.
