Abstract :
A new optimisation criterion is proposed, which enables the minimisation of the ripple of an amplifier, while controlling the absolute value of its gain, with reduced computing time. A gain of 8.25 ± 0.35 dB has been calculated for a power f.e.t. amplifier optimised over the band from 6 to 9 GHz.
