In this paper, the high efficiency and linearity Doherty power amplifier using DGS and adaptive bias technique has been designed and realized for 2.3GHz WiBro applications. The Doherty amplifier has been implemented using silicon MRF 281 LDMOS FET. The RF performances of the Doherty power amplifier (a combination of a class AB carrier amplifier and a bias-tuned class C peaking amplifier) have been compared with those of a class AB amplifier alone, and conventional Doherty amplifier. The Maximum PAE of designed Doherty power amplifier with DGS and adaptive bias technique has been 36.6% at 34.01dBm output power. The proposed Doherty power amplifier showed an improvement 1dB at output power and 7.6% PAE than a class AB amplifier alone.
