TRANSMITTER SYSTEM WITH HYBRID DIGITAL DRIFT/TRAP COMPENSATION
The present disclosure relates to a transmitter system that includes a radio frequency (RF) power amplifier (PA) and a baseband processor. The RF PA is configured to amplify an RF input signal to an RF output signal and configured to receive an analog bias adjustment signal, which is applied to correct dynamic bias errors in the RF PA caused by amplification variations that have time constants. The baseband processor, in response to an input envelope and a feedback output envelope, is configured to generate a feedback envelope error signal. Herein, the input envelope is estimated based on a baseband input signal received by the baseband processor, and the feedback output envelope is estimated based on the RF output signal. The RF input signal and the analog bias adjustment signal fed to the RF PA are generated from the baseband input signal and the feedback envelope error signal, respectively.
No-load-modulation, high-efficiency power amplifier
Apparatus and methods for a multiclass, broadband, no-load-modulation power amplifier are described. The power amplifier (500) may include a main amplifier (532) operating in a first amplification class and a plurality of peaking amplifiers (536, 537, 538) operating in a second amplification class. The main amplifier (532) and peaking amplifiers (536, 537, 538) may operate in parallel on portions of signals derived from an input signal to be amplified. The main amplifier (532) may see no modulation of its load impedance between a fully-on state of the power amplifier (all amplifiers amplifying) and a fully backed-off state (peaking amplifiers idle). By avoiding load modulation, the power amplifier (500) can exhibit improved bandwidth and efficiency compared to conventional Doherty amplifiers.
