Analysis of tuned junction-transistor circuits under large sinusoidal voltages in the normal domain-Part II: Tuned power amplifiers and harmonic generators

This paper utilizes the effective hybrid-
\pi
equivalent circuit derived in Part I for analyzing the behavior of tuned power amplifiers. Continuous wave (CW) amplifiers, harmonic generators, amplitude-modulated (AM) class-C amplifiers, and class-B (linear) amplifiers are all analyzed on a unified basis, with particular reference to the device output power, input power, driving power, load impedance, and related quantities.
