    Design of high power S-band GaN MMIC power amplifiers for WiMAX applications
    (IEEE, 2011) Cengiz, Ömer; Kelekçi, Özgür; Arıkan, Galip Orkun; Özbay, Ekmel; Palamutçuoǧullari O.
    This paper reports two different S band GaN MMIC PA designs for WiMAX applications. First PA has a 42.6 dBm output power with a 55%PAE @ 3.5 GHz and 16 dB small signal gain in the 3.2-3.8 GHz frequency range. When two of these MMICs were combined by using off-chip Lange Couplers, 45.3 dBm output power with a 45%PAE @3.5Ghz and 16 dB small signal gain were obtained with less than 0.2 dB gain ripple in the 3.3-3.8 GHz frequency range. © 2011 IEEE.

    High power K-band GaN on SiC CPW monolithic power amplifier
    (IEEE, 2014-10) Cengiz, Ömer; Şen, Özlem; Özbay, Ekmel
    This paper presents a high power amplifier at K-band (20.2-21.2 GHz). The AlGaN/GaN CPW MMIC amplifier is realized with 0.25 μm HEMT process on 2-inch semi-insulating SiC substrate. The amplifier has a small signal gain over 20 dB for Vds=15V and measured output power of over 31 dBm at 20.2 Ghz. PAE of the amplifier is around 22% for desired frequency band. Initial radiation hardness tests indicate a suitable stability of the technology in space. © 2014 European Microwave Association.
