Abstract: A high-frequency signal processing apparatus and a wireless communication apparatus can achieve a decrease in power consumption. For example, when an indicated power level to a high-frequency power amplifier is equal to or greater than a second reference value, envelope tracking is performed by causing a source voltage control circuit to control a high-speed DCDC converter using a detection result of an envelope detecting circuit and causing a bias control circuit to indicate a fixed bias value. The source voltage control circuit and the bias control circuit indicate a source voltage and a bias value decreasing in proportion to a decrease in the indicated power level when the indicated power level is in a range of the second reference value to the first reference value, and indicate a fixed source voltage and a fixed bias value when the indicated power level is less than the first reference value.

Abstract: A power amplifier includes a 3-dB coupler which splits a first signal into a second signal and a third signal lagging behind the second signal by 90°, a carrier amplifier, a peak amplifier, and a hybrid coupler. The carrier amplifier amplifies the second signal and outputs a fourth signal when the first-signal power level is a first level or higher. The peak amplifier amplifies the third signal and outputs a fifth signal when the first-signal power level is a second level or higher, which is higher than the first level. The hybrid coupler includes a first transmission line receiving the fourth signal at its first terminal, and a second transmission line receiving the fifth signal at its first terminal and being open at its second terminal. The first transmission line outputs, from its second terminal, an amplified first signal obtained by combining the fourth and fifth signals.

Abstract: A transmission circuit includes a transmission signal generation unit, a control unit, and a transmission signal amplification unit. The transmission signal generation unit generates a transmission signal that has been modulated. The transmission signal amplification unit includes a power amplifier that amplifies the transmission signal. The control unit determines a supply voltage signal having an amplitude characteristic of a period identical to that of an envelope of the transmission signal and supplies the supply voltage signal to the power amplifier. The control unit determines an output timing of the supply voltage signal such that a phase difference between a phase of the envelope of the transmission signal and a phase of the supply voltage signal does not become zero.
