摘要:
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention relate to an RF transmitter supporting carrier aggregation and envelope tracking and an RF transmitter according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises an RF path configured to convert a carrier aggregation signal in which a plurality of component carriers belonging to a baseband are aggregated into an RF signal; an ET path configured to generate an envelope signal by calculating magnitudes of the plurality of component carriers, respectively, and adding the calculated each magnitude of the component carriers; and an amplifier configured to power-amplify the converted RF signal according to a bias voltage corresponding to the generated envelope signal. According to exemplary embodiments of the present invention, power amplification efficiency and data transmission efficiency are improved by applying carrier aggregation and envelope tracking.
摘要:
Provided is a power amplifier installed in wireless communication terminals and systems. According to one aspect of the present invention, a reconfigurable power amplifier capable of selecting a wide band frequency is provided. The reconfigurable power amplifier includes input transistors receiving a radio frequency (RF) signal and a reconfigurable adaptive power cell configured to select the wide band frequency by applying a common-gate bias voltage to a plurality of common-gate transistors with a plurality of separate common gates to amplify the RF signal.
