Abstract :
In this paper a new approach to design frequency triplers is introduced. The technique is based on the closed-form synthesis of distributed matching networks which synthesize the desired load values at fundamental, second and third harmonic frequencies. Then to validate the introduced approach an active frequency tripler is designed and the resulting performances are reported.
