In this article, the evolution of the Doherty Power Amplifier (DPA) through its first seventy-five years is presented. The aim is to explain why this architecture is still used to realize very advanced power amplifier stages for wireless systems. To this purpose, a review of the DPA principle of operation, together with a benchmark of the state of the art results, realization methods and fields of application, is reported.

Abstract

In this article, the evolution of the Doherty Power Amplifier (DPA) through its first seventy-five years is presented. The aim is to explain why this architecture is still used to realize very advanced power amplifier stages for wireless systems. To this purpose, a review of the DPA principle of operation, together with a benchmark of the state of the art results, realization methods and fields of application, is reported.
