A power amplifier arrangement is disclosed which has two or more
amplifiers connected in parallel. The amplifiers can be switched on and
off independently of one another by means of control devices. At least
one DC/DC converter is provided for supplying voltage to the amplifiers.
A significant improvement in the efficiency of a power amplifier is
achieved by the combination of the voltage supplied by means of a DC/DC
converter for the amplifiers with distributed power gain. The arrangement
is therefore particularly suitable for use in mobile radio transmission
arrangements.
