hi all
a simple PA ADS file is attached,
I need to adjust the specifications needed for amplifier in simulation as following:

AM/PM (single carrier) < 6.5deg/dB
output power 17dBW (input is not important)!

inter modulation as bellow (dB):

Psignal/Psat ****** IM3/Psignal
-3 *********** -10
-10 *********** -25
-17 *********** -30

how can I test the simulation for achieving the nonlinear characteristic of the PA?
what kind of sweeps is needed?
thanks
 

Nonlinear simulations are always done with Harmonic Balance.
