    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a suspended air dielectric strip line of a simple structure by providing a spacer layer with a channel formed in it and thus forming upper and lower air chambers on a surface opposite to an intermediate layer. SOLUTION: A ground surface 30 is attached to the lower surface 20 of an upper layer 18 and the ground surface 32 is attached to the upper surface 26 of a bottom layer 16 on the other hand. The ground surface 30 is separated from the upper surface 22 of the layer 14 by a flat dielectric spacer layer 40. Similarly, the ground surface 32 is separated from the lower surface 24 of the layer by the flat dielectric spacer layer 42. The channel 50 is formed inside the spacer layer 40 and is extended in a longitudinal direction. The channel 50 forms the air chamber along with the layers 12 and 14. Similarly, the channel 52 is formed in the spacer layer 42. Then, the voltage gradient of a strip line is present over the air dielectric layer of the channels 50 and 52 for minimizing influence from the layer of a solid. The strip line is cooled by air made to flow through the channels 50 and 52.

    Abstract: A system and method for improving the input return loss in RF amplifiers is disclosed. One embodiment of the present invention amplifies only one (0°) of the two (0° and 90°) output quadrature signals of 3 dB coupler (310) in an amplifier module while substantially maintaining a constant impedance at the input to the 3 dB coupler (310). This removes one of the design constraints for designing the input network for an amplifier module thereby allowing for more flexible amplifier designs and ease of cascading amplifier modules. One embodiment of the present invention improves the input return loss of an RF amplifier pallet in a cascaded-stage power amplifier circuit for a television transmitter including a 3 dB coupler by replacing one of the two amplifiers connected to the output of the 3 dB coupler with an electrical circuit of substantially equivalent impedance to the input impedance of the non-replaced amplifier.

    Abstract: The variable power supply (12) to an amplifier (10) in an electrical circuit is dynamically controlled through the use of a lookup table (14) responsive to one or more operating conditions of the electrical circuit. The lookup table is indexed by one or more of the operating conditions and the amount of amplification to be applied to an input signal to the amplifier is determined. One embodiment of the invention comprises a television transmitter circuit including a power amplifier circuit capable of amplifying a variable frequency COFDM or 8VSB input signal (11) where the amount of amplification applied to the input signal is dynamically controlled through the use of a lookup table as a function of the frequency of the input signal.

    Abstract: A power amplifier system is presented for use in amplifying an RF input signal comprising N sub-power amplifiers (PA-1 to PA-N) are connected in parallel with each receiving and amplifying a portion of the RF input signal. A combiner (CB) combines the amplified portions of the RF input signal to provide a combined output signal. Each sub-amplifier (PA-1 to PA-N) includes at least one transistor having an input port that receives a DC bias voltage and an output port, such that when the RF input signal is not present a quiescent current flows through the output port. A controller (M.C.) is operative when the RF signal is not present to check and adjust the magnitude of the quiescent current flowing in each of the sub-amplifier output ports in the sequence of 1 N.
