    Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for mixer biasing with baseband filter common-mode voltage. In an example aspect, the apparatus includes a mixer, a baseband filter, and a bias circuit. The mixer has a mixer transistor that is coupled to a bias node and a baseband node. The baseband filter is coupled to the mixer via the baseband node. The baseband filter is configured to operate with a common-mode reference voltage that is associated with a common-mode voltage applied at the baseband node. The bias circuit is coupled to the baseband filter and the bias node. The bias circuit is configured to receive the common-mode reference voltage from the baseband filter and generate, at the bias node, a bias voltage for biasing the mixer transistor based on the common-mode reference voltage.

    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are related to digital pre-distortion in envelope tracking systems. A device may include an amplitude modulation-to-phase modulation (AM-PM) distortion unit configured to generate an AM-PM distortion component in response to receipt of phase data of an input transmit signal. The device may also include a local oscillator (LO) path coupled to the distortion unit and configured to convey a local oscillator (LO) signal that varies based on the AM-PM distortion component.

    Abstract: An apparatus for reducing spurs is described. The apparatus includes a coarse digital to analog converter (DAC). The apparatus also includes a correction term generator. The correction term generator generates a correction term. The correction term has an amplitude within a dynamic range of the coarse digital to analog converter (DAC). The apparatus also includes a baseband filter. The correction term is selected such that the baseband filter reduces the correction term to an amplitude approximating that of a spur in a transmit signal. The correction term is used to reduce a spur.
