Design of GaN HEMT Transistor Based Amplifiers for 5-6 GHz WiMAX Applications
Overview 2.5 and 5 Watt average power (15 and 30 Watt peak power) GaN HEMT amplifiers for WiMAX signal protocols have been designed and fabricated for use in the 5.5 to 5.8 GHz band. The 2.5 Watt PA produces 11 dB of gain and the 5 Watt PA produces 10 dB of gain with EVMs less than 2.5 % at the respective average power with drain efficiencies greater than 26% at average power. A design methodology for optimizing linear performance is described for these two transistors and resultant amplifiers.

Designing Multihop Wireless Backhaul Networks With Delay Guarantees
As wireless access technologies improve in data rates, the problem focus is shifting towards providing adequate backhaul from the wireless access points to the Internet. Existing wired backhaul technologies such...
Throughput and Capacity of MIMO WiMAX
The work in this paper presents physical layer throughput measurement results of a WiMAX link implemented according to IEEE 802.16-2004. The measurements were carried out in an alpine and an...
Measurement Based Throughput Evaluation of Residual Frequency Offset Compensation in WiMAX
WiMAX utilizes a physical-layer based on OFDM that is very sensitive to carrier frequency offset. Even though most of this offset can be compensated using the initial training sequence, there...
