摘要:
A wireless communication unit (100) comprises a transmitter having an analogue feedback power control loop having a power control function (132) arranged to set an output power level of the transmitter. The power control function (132) comprises a predictor sub-system (200) arranged to reduce sensitivity to loop latency of the analogue feedback power control loop. The use of a predictor sub-system provides reduced sensitivity to loop latency, gain variations and delay.

A system for saturation detection, correction and recovery in a power amplifier includes a power amplifier, a closed power control loop configured to develop a power control signal (Vpc), and power control circuitry configured to reduce the power control signal if the power amplifier is operating in a saturation mode.

A transceiver with amplification control comprises the following. A coupler samples a part of a radio frequency signal proceeding between an amplifier unit and an antenna of the transceiver. A converter down converts the sampled radio frequency signal. A measuring unit measures strength of the down converted radio frequency signal. A controller controls at least one parameter of the amplifier unit as a function of the measured strength.
摘要:
A power amplifier controller circuit controls a power amplifier based upon an amplitude correction signal indicating the amplitude difference between the amplitude of the input signal and an attenuated amplitude of the output signal. The power amplifier controller circuit comprises an amplitude control loop and a phase control loop. The amplitude control loop adjusts the supply voltage to the power amplifier based upon the amplitude correction signal. The phase control loop adjusts the phase of the input signal based upon a phase error signal indicating a phase difference between phases of the input signal and the output signal to reduce phase distortion generated by the power amplifier. The amplitude control loop and the phase control loop may also adjust the gain and/or phase of the power amplifier, respectively.
