Abstract: A communication device includes a communication interface, a number of variable power amplifiers (VPAs), and a processor. Some of the VPAs are configured to process analog signals to generate processed analog signals (e.g., each VPA configured to process one of the analog signals to generate one of the processed analog signals based on a respective VPA control signal). A composite VPA processes a summation of the processed analog signals, which are generated by certain of the VPA, to generate a processed composite signal based on a composite VPA control signal. The processor generates the a first, a second, and a composite VPA control signals based, at least in part, on configuration information from another communication device via the communication interface. The processor may be configured to consider other information as well, such as locally generated information (within the communication device), operational history, current operating conditions, etc.

Abstract translation: 通信设备包括通信接口，多个可变功率放大器（VPA）和处理器。 一些VPA被配置为处理模拟信号以产生经处理的模拟信号（例如，每个VPA被配置为基于相应的VPA控制信号来处理模拟信号之一以产生经处理的模拟信号之一）。 复合VPA处理由某些VPA产生的经处理的模拟信号的总和，以基于复合VPA控制信号产生经处理的复合信号。 该处理器至少部分地基于来自另一通信设备的通信接口的配置信息来生成第一，第二和复合VPA控制信号。 处理器也可以被配置为考虑其他信息，诸如本地生成的信息（在通信设备内），操作历史，当前操作条件等。
