An antenna controller for an antenna is configured to request and receive status information comprising power amplifier data of at least two adjustable power amplifiers. The antenna controller is configured to determine at least one target setting for the at least two adjustable power amplifiers based on the received power amplifier data, and to send the at least one target setting for the at least two adjustable power amplifiers. Hereby it is made possible for an antenna controller to set an overall target for multiple adjustable power amplifiers of the antenna. This in turn makes it possible to make the settings for the adjustable power amplifiers such that the transmission signal becomes linearized by a shared digital pre-distorter when transmitting using the multiple adjustable power amplifiers of the antenna. A Radio Frequency Integrated Circuit controller for an antenna subarray is configured to control at least one adjustable power amplifier.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. A wireless communication device may have an apparatus that aligns the non-linearity between transmit chains of the wireless communication device that are driven by the same digital port. The apparatus may adjust an amplification power out or an amplification saturated power to adjust a ratio between the amplification saturated power and the amplification power out for one or more transmit chains of the wireless communication device. The apparatus may adjust the ratios of transmit chains to align the ratios of the transmit chains for more consistent management of non-linear characteristics of the chain components.

The absorbed power may be based upon first and second Walsh codes transmitted to each of first and second gain and phase modulators in the system. The first Walsh code may be orthogonal to the second Walsh code. A first set of the first and second Walsh codes may be inverted with respect to a second set of the first and second Walsh codes. The method may also include a step of modulating the absorbed power in view of the determination. The method may further include a step of transmitting feedback based upon the modulated power to the first and second gain and phase modulators.
