    摘要: A front-end module configured to cancel unwanted transmit spectrum at one or more receivers comprises at least one transmitter having a power amplifier and configured to transmit signals to an antenna. The front-end module also comprises at least one receiver to receive the transmit signals, wherein the at least one receiver receives at least a portion of unwanted transmit spectrum. A directional coupler couples at least a portion of a transmit output signal from the power amplifier to provide a coupled transmit output signal to signal conditioning circuitry associated with the at least one receiver and configured to condition the coupled transmit output signal to generate a conditioned transmit signal to provide to the at least one receiver, wherein the conditioned transmit signal at least partially cancels the unwanted transmit spectrum. The signal conditioning circuitry may adjust the amplitude and phase of the coupled transmit output signal.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to de-multiplexing at least one RF input signal feeding RF power amplifier circuitry to create multiple de-multiplexed RF output signals, which may be used to provide RF transmit signals in an RF communications system. Output transformer circuitry is coupled to outputs from the RF power amplifier circuitry to provide the de-multiplexed RF output signals, which may support multiple modes, multiple frequency bands, or both. The de-multiplexed RF output signals may be used in place of RF switching elements in certain embodiments. As a result, RF front-end switching circuitry in the RF communications system may be simplified, thereby reducing insertion losses, reducing costs, reducing size, or any combination thereof. Additionally, the output transformer circuitry may provide load line transformation, output transistor biasing, or both to the RF power amplifier circuitry.

    摘要: This disclosure relates generally to power amplification devices and methods of operating the same. The power amplification devices are capable of reducing (and possibly cancelling) modulation of a ripple variation of a supply voltage level of a supply voltage onto a radio frequency (RF) signal. In one embodiment, a power amplification device includes a power amplification circuit configured to amplify an RF signal with a supply voltage such that a ripple variation in a supply voltage level of the supply voltage is modulated onto the RF signal in accordance with a conversion gain. However, the power amplification device also includes a plurality of ripple rejection circuits. The plurality of ripple rejection circuits is configured to produce phase shifts and one or more amplitude shifts in the RF signal so as to reduce the conversion gain of the power amplification circuit.

    摘要: A baseband PA predistortion module, which includes a baseband combiner, a baseband PA correction circuit, and a baseband filter, is disclosed. The baseband PA correction circuit replicates behavior of an RF PA by processing a modulation data signal to provide a predistortion data signal. The behavior of the RF PA includes distortion. The modulation data signal is representative of an RF input signal to an RF PA and the predistortion data signal is representative of a correction needed at an output of the RF PA. The baseband filter receives and filters the predistortion data signal to provide a reduced predistortion data signal, such that a low frequency content of the reduced predistortion data signal is less than a low frequency content of the predistortion data signal. The baseband combiner receives and combines the modulation data signal and the reduced predistortion data signal to provide a baseband transmit signal.
