1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

In order to meet the application requirements of radar networks for high efficiency and high second harmonic suppression (SHS) of power amplifiers, this paper proposes a C-band 30 W power amplifier (PA) microwave monolithic integrated circuit (MMIC) based on 0.25 μm gallium nitride (GaN) high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) process. The proposed PA uses a two-stage amplifier structure to achieve high power gain. A topology with SHS is designed in the output-matching network. Besides, the large signal model load pull simulation and the harmonic control technology in the output stage are used to improve efficiency. The high-power additional efficiency (PAE) and high SHS of the PA MMIC are achieved simultaneously. In the 5-6 GHz frequency range, multiple indicator measurements of the proposed PA show that output power is over 45 dBm, the PAE is more than 57%, the SHS exceeds 45 dBc, the power gain is greater than 24 dB, which are conducted under the condition of 100 μs pulse width and 10% duty cycle. In addition, the size of the PA MMIC, including bonding pads, is 3.3 × 3.1 mm
