Polar modulation transmitter with wideband product mode control
10735034 · 2020-08-04 · ·

A wideband polar modulation transmitter includes a power amplifier (PA), a PA driver, a dynamic power supply (DPS), a PA driver V.sub.H controller, and a phase modulator. The phase modulator modulates a radio frequency (RF) carrier by an input phase modulating signal PM(t) to produce a phase modulated RF carrier. Meanwhile, the DPS produces a DPS voltage for the PA that follows an input amplitude modulating signal AM(t). Using the phase modulated RF carrier, the PA driver generates a PA drive signal V.sub.DRV for driving the PA. The PA drive signal V.sub.DRV has a high drive level V.sub.H and a low drive level V.sub.L. The PA driver V.sub.H controller is configured to control the magnitude of the high drive level V.sub.H so that it remains sufficiently high to force the PA to operate in a compressed mode (C-mode) most of the time but lowers the high drive level V.sub.H to force the PA to operate in a product mode (P-mode) during times low-magnitude events occur in the DPS voltage.

20200204422 · 2020-06-25 ·

A multi-level voltage circuit and related apparatus are provided. The multi-level voltage circuit is configured to provide an average power tracking (APT) voltage to an amplifier circuit for amplifying a radio frequency (RF) signal, which can be modulated in a number of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols. The RF signal may experience power fluctuations from one OFDM symbol to another and the multi-level voltage circuit may need to adjust the APT voltage accordingly. In examples discussed herein, when the APT voltage needs to increase from a present value to a higher future value at a predetermined effective time, the multi-level voltage circuit may start increasing the APT voltage from the present value toward the future value ahead of the predetermined effective time. As such, it may be possible to ramp up the APT voltage in a timely fashion to help improve linearity and efficiency of the amplifier circuit.
