Abstract

We analyze the performance of an amplifier-antenna array by using separately measured amplifier load-pull data and antenna S-parameters and port-specific radiation patterns. We show that the effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) of the system can be improved by using phase values which differ from progressive phase shift. Maximum EIRP improvement is 1.1 dB in certain steer directions and over 0.5 dB improvement over a large beamsteering range was measured when compared to using the progressive phase-shift envelope.
