Abstract
Doherty power amplifier having reduced size. In some embodiments, a power amplification system can include a supply system configured to provide a high-voltage supply signal, and a Doherty power amplifier configured to receive the high-voltage supply signal and amplify a radio-frequency (RF) signal. The power amplification system can further include an output path configured to receive and route the amplified RF signal to a filter. The output path can be substantially free of an impedance transformation circuit.
