Load pull is one of the most vital steps in the design of high frequency power amplifier in microwave and terahertz frequencies. We squeeze out the power by doing this load pull simulation to find out the optimum load impedance at which we can obtain maximum output power.
This video shows how to perform load pull simulation in cadence virtuoso using periodic steady state (PSS) analysis. We can generate constant power contours in smith chart after this simulation in cadence.

Cadence is one of the most used IC design tools in the industry and academia.
