Abstract :
A class-F power amplifier at 5.8 GHz using a novel harmonic tuner based on a composite right/left handed (CRLH) transmission line (TL) is proposed and experimentally tested. The structure uses two open CRLH-TL stubs to suppress the 2nd, the 3rd, the 4th and the 5th harmonics and the fundamental frequency is matched to 50 Omega.
