Controllable Transformation Networks and Power Amplifiers for Efficient High-Bandwidth Radio Frequency Power Conversion

In one aspect, a system for transforming a radio frequency (RF) signal between a source and a load can include: a first port and a second port connected to different ones of the source and the load; a first filter connected to the first port; a second filter connected to the second port, at least one of the first and second filters operable to provide variable reactance using dynamic frequency tuning (DFT); a two-port switching network connected between the first filter and the second filter, the switching network comprising a plurality of switches; and a controller coupled to the switching network and to the source, the controller configured to operate the plurality of switches according to a switching pattern and to dynamically adjust a frequency of the RF signal to provide controllable impedance matching between the first port and the second port.
