10.15.26 -- Unlocking PA Efficiency Through 3rd Harmonic Load Pull

Explore high-performance RF front-end solutions—LNAs, PAs, switches, filters, and modules—powering applications from 5G and SATCOM to IoT, drones, metering, defense, and cellular infrastructure.

Discover how third harmonic load pull improves GaN power amplifier efficiency, enabling faster characterization, better models, and optimized RF performance with the MT2000.

Examine RF power amplifier selection for military communications and electronic warfare, covering modulation techniques, GaN-on-SiC technology, and key performance criteria.

This example uses XFdtd to simulate the performance of a low cost, chipless RFID system in order to validate its performance for use in situations where high volume usage requires very low-cost components.

Testing RF enclosures requires careful setup of half-wave dipole antennas for site attenuation, shielding effectiveness, and gain reference, ensuring accurate measurements at the correct resonant frequency.
