Abstract

An amplifier includes two amplifier circuits and a power splitter. The power splitter splits a signal to be amplified and generates a phase displacement of 90° in the case of a rated frequency between resulting partial signals. In this context, the amplifier circuits each amplify one of the partial signals or respectively a signal derived from one of the partial signals. The amplifier additionally contains a first delay element, which is arranged between the power splitter and one of the amplifier circuits.
