    摘要: Apparatus and methods for amplifier linearization are disclosed. In certain embodiments, an RF amplifier includes an RF input terminal that receives an RF input signal, an RF output terminal that provides an RF output signal, a gallium nitride field-effect transistor (GaN FET) having a gate connected to the RF input terminal and a drain connected to the RF output terminal. The GaN FET amplifies the RF input signal. The RF amplifier further includes a gallium arsenide field-effect transistor (GaAs FET) having a gate connected to the RF input terminal and a drain connected to the RF output terminal. The GaAs FET is operable to linearize the GaN FET.

    摘要: Apparatus and methods for multi-antenna communications are provided. In certain embodiments, a communication system includes an antenna array including a plurality of antenna elements, and a plurality of RF circuit channels each coupled to a corresponding one of the antenna elements. The plurality of RF circuit channels generate two or more analog baseband signals in response to the antenna array receiving a radio wave. The communication system further includes a controllable amplification and combining circuit that generates two or more amplified analog baseband signals based on amplifying each of the two or more analog baseband signals with a separately controllable gain, and that combines the two or more amplified analog baseband signals to generate a combined analog baseband signal.
