Abstract :
The present state-of-the-art of low distortion amplifiers in the microwave range will be assessed. Tradeoffs between distortion and efficiency for various devices such as FETs, bipolar transistors and IMPATTs will be investigated, together with advances in external distortion compensating techniques.
