Biography

Received the Bachelor’s Degree in Electronics Engineering at Politecnico di Torino and, after an internship in the telecommunications field, continued her studies with the Master Degree in Radio Frequency Systems Design, graduating at Politecnico di Torino in 2023. Completed the thesis project “Development of a wideband MMIC Doherty Power Amplifier for 5G applications in the FR1 frequency bands” in April 2023.
She studied high-efficiency, wideband integrated power amplifier design for 5G bands at Politecnico di Torino on a scholarship, and since November 2023, she has been a PhD student in Electrical, Electronics, and Communications Engineering at the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications (DET) of Politecnico di Torino.
Her PhD work focuses on designing multi-stage power amplifiers to create efficient, linear, and load-insensitive power amplifiers. The main goals are extending the theory on driver roles for overall Doherty efficiency, pushing multi-stage load-insensitive architectures to achieve maximum power and efficiency in Ku-Ka bands, and developing a design methodology to predict the linearity of multi-stage amplifiers.
