Methods and systems for vector combining power amplification are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a plurality of signals are individually amplified, then summed to form a desired time-varying complex envelope signal. Phase and/or frequency characteristics of one or more of the signals are controlled to provide the desired phase, frequency, and/or amplitude characteristics of the desired time-varying complex envelope signal. In another embodiment, a time-varying complex envelope signal is decomposed into a plurality of constant envelope constituent signals. The constituent signals are amplified equally or substantially equally, and then summed to construct an amplified version of the original time-varying envelope signal. Embodiments also perform frequency up-conversion.

A transmission circuit is provided which can output a stable transmission signal independently of the temperature characteristics of an amplitude modulating section. A signal generating section generates an amplitude signal and a phase signal. A regulator supplies a voltage which is controlled, depending on the amplitude signal, to the amplitude modulating section. An angle modulating section subjects the phase signal to angle modulation to output an angle-modulated signal. A temperature detecting section outputs temperature information of the amplitude modulating section. A gain control section controls a gain of a variable gain amplifier based on the temperature information of the amplitude modulating section. The variable gain amplifier amplifies the angle-modulated signal using the gain controlled by the gain control section. The amplitude modulating section subjects the angle-modulated signal to amplitude modulation using a voltage which is controlled, depending on the amplitude signal, to output an amplitude-modulated signal.

A power amplifier arrangement includes a power amplifier with an input for a radio-frequency signal and an output for delivering a second radio-frequency signal. The second radio-frequency signal has a current and a voltage. A second element is configured to deliver a first signal derived from the current of the second radio-frequency signal. Furthermore, a first element is provided to deliver a second signal derived from the voltage of the second radio-frequency signal. An evaluating circuit detects in-phase components of the first and the second signal. As a result, in-phase current and voltage components can be detected together which produce the active power of the second radio-frequency signal by multiplication.

A system and method for signal peak reduction in a spread spectrum communication system of the type including a filter for limiting signal bandwidth of symbols transmitted from the system. A signal peak reduction unit is provided before the filter that includes a filter predictor that predicts the effect of the filter on input symbols by using filter coefficient values corresponding to the filter impulse response function. Input symbols that are predicted to cause the output signal to exceed a predetermined peak limit value are adjusted. Several examples of suitable algorithms for calculating the necessary peak reduction to be applied to the input symbols are disclosed. The peak reduction unit provides adjusted symbols to the filter for processing and communication system output.
摘要:
Systems and methods are presented for measuring power levels of primary and interfering signals as well as noise, particularly for satellite transmitted signals. A typical method comprises the steps of receiving a signal comprising a primary signal, an interference signal and noise, demodulating the primary signal to remove a carrier frequency, decoding the primary signal to obtain symbols, estimating a power level of the primary signal based upon the demodulated and decoded primary signal. Additionally, an ideal primary signal can be generated from the carrier power and frequency and the symbols and subtracted from the received signal to produce the noise and interference signal. The noise and interference power is then estimated from the noise and interference signal.

A data transmitting/receiving apparatus and method for improving the reliability of data bits in a CDMA mobile communication system. High-priority bits are mapped to a high-reliability bit position and low-priority bits, to a low-reliability bit position in symbols. Thus system performance is improved at a transmission.
