Abstract: A radio frequency (RF) dielectric heating system includes a solid-state RF power generator, a matching network electrically coupled to the RF power generator, and a dielectric heating applicator electrically coupled to the matching network and including electrodes for applying RF power to a dielectric material. A solid-state RF power generator can include a power supply, an RF power amplifier stage electrically coupled to the power supply, and a control system electrically coupled to and configured to control the RF power amplifier stage. The control system can be configured to regulate an output voltage of the RF power generator to provide a constant RF power generator output current to maintain a constant voltage across the applicator electrodes. Examples of RF power generators and methods for RF dielectric heating are also disclosed.
