Abstract

Load-Pull measurements are essential to characterize power devices accurately. This paper presents a comparison between two active and one passive Load-Pull measurement system. The experimental results obtained with a power MESFET transistor (1 Watt) are compared in terms of output power level and power added efficiency for various load impedances and input power levels.
