Abstract

A computer model for combined electromagnetic (EM) field and non-linear circuit simulation is presented in outline. This is used to design a highly miniaturised prototype power amplifier (PA) for a DECT cordless phone handset, and to investigate the causes of discrepancies between measured and predicted performance
