摘要： A system and method for detecting and correcting over-current and/or over-voltage conditions in power amplifier circuitry in a transmit chain of a mobile terminal are provided. In general, over-current detection and correction circuitry combines a current detection signal indicative of a current provided to or drained by the power amplifier circuitry during ramp-up for a transmit burst and a substantially inverse current ramping profile to provide a first constant value. The first constant value is compared to a current threshold or limit value to determine whether an over-current condition exists. If an over-current condition exists, the over-current detection and correction circuitry operates to reduce the output power of the power amplifier circuitry during ramp-up for the transmit burst to correct for the over-current condition. In a similar manner, over-voltage detection circuitry operates to detect and correct over-voltage conditions during ramp-up for the transmit burst.

摘要： An over-voltage detection and correction system for a transmitter of a mobile terminal that accounts for battery droop during a transmit burst is provided. In general, prior to ramp-up for a first transmit burst, a voltage of the battery of the mobile terminal at a no-load condition is measured. After ramp-up for the transmit burst, the voltage of the battery is measured at full-load, and a current provided to a power amplifier of the transmitter at full-load is detected. Based on the measured voltage of the battery at no-load, the measured voltage of the battery at full-load, and the detected current provided to the power amplifier at full-load, a resistance of the battery is determined. The resistance of the battery is thereafter used to compensate for battery droop during over-voltage detection and correction for one or more subsequent transmit bursts.

摘要： A method for power amplifier (PA) calibration for an envelope tracking system of a wireless device is disclosed. The method involves measuring an output power of a PA that is a part under test (PUT) at a predetermined input power. Another step includes calculating a gain equal to the output power of the PA divided by the predetermined input power. A next step involves calculating a gain correction by subtracting the calculated gain from a desired gain. Other steps include determining an expected supply voltage for the PA at the desired gain using the gain correction applied to a nominal curve of gain versus PA supply voltage, and then storing the expected supply voltage for the PA versus input power in memory.

摘要： A front end radio architecture (FERA) with power management is disclosed. The FERA includes a first power amplifier (PA) block having a first-first PA and a first-second PA, and a second PA block having a second-first PA and a second-second PA. First and second modulated switchers are adapted to selectively supply power to the first-first PA and the second-first PA, and to supply power to the first-second PA and the second-second PA, respectively. The first and second modulated switchers have a modulation bandwidth of at least 20 MHz and are both suitable for envelope tracking modulation. A control system is adapted to selectively enable and disable the first-first PA, first-second PA, the second-first PA, and the second-second PA. First and second switches are responsive to control signals to route carriers and received signals between first and second antennas depending upon a selectable mode of operation such as intra-band or inter-band operation.

摘要： A transmitter includes a polar modulator that creates phase and amplitude signals which in turn drive a power amplifier. To compensate for AM to PM conversion of the amplitude signal into the amplified signal, a compensation signal is generated from the amplitude signal and combined with the phase signal such that when amplified, the compensation signal cancels the AM to PM conversion. The compensation signal may have an offset term, a linear term, a quadratic term, and a cubic term. A second embodiment comprises a technique by which AM to AM conversion may concurrently be addressed using a second compensation signal.

摘要： A system and method are provided for switching from one phase-locked loop feedback source to another in a radio frequency (RF) transmitter. The RF transmitter includes a phase-locked loop (PLL) that provides a phase-modulated RF input signal and power amplifier circuitry that amplifies the RF input signal to provide an RF output signal. The PLL includes switching circuitry that couples a feedback path of the PLL to an output of the PLL for open loop operation and couples the feedback path of the PLL to an output of the power amplifier circuitry for closed loop operation. Prior to switching the feedback path from the output of the PLL to the output of the power amplifier circuitry, time alignment circuitry operates to time-align feedback signals from the outputs of the PLL and the power amplifier circuitry such that switching from open loop operation to closed loop operation causes minimal phase disturbance.

摘要： A system and method for performing DC offset correction in a wireless communication receiver during “dead time” are provided. The receiver includes amplifier circuitry that amplifies a received radio frequency (RF) signal, downconversion circuitry that downconverts the received RF signal to provide a downconverted signal, digitization circuitry that digitizes the downconverted signal to provide a digital signal, and digital DC offset correction circuitry enabled during the dead time when there should be no DC content in the downconverted signal. In operation, the digital DC offset correction circuitry detects a DC offset of the digital signal and subtracts the DC offset from the digital signal.
