Abstract :
This article presents the development of a large-signal transistor model for a power microwave pseudomorphic high-electron mobility transistor (pHEMT). This model won the first prize in the Microwave Transistor Modeling student competition held during the 2013 IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S) International Microwave Symposium (IMS2013) in Seattle, Washington.
