20130003890 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING TRANSMITTER INTERFERENCE - A method and apparatus mitigates spurious transmissions. An offset local oscillator signal is generated that is at a frequency that is offset from a nominal transmit channel carrier frequency by a spurious mitigation offset. An information signal is generated that comprises a series of modulation symbols and has a transmission bandwidth at baseband. A configured offset information signal is generated from the information signal, wherein the spectrum of the configured offset information signal is offset from DC by a channel configuration offset, and is further offset by a negative of the spurious mitigation offset. The offset local oscillator signal and the configured offset information signal are combined using a mixing technique. The spurious mitigation offset is zero when a spurious condition does not exist and is non-zero when the spurious condition does exist. | 01-03-2013 |

20140199949 | METHOD FOR IMPROVING TX GAIN IN ENVELOPE TRACKING SYSTEMS - A method and system enhances the gain of a propagation path of a radio frequency (RF) signal while utilizing an envelope tracking (ET) mechanism to provide power to a power amplifier within the propagation path. An envelope tracking (ET) controller detects using the ET mechanism an RF envelope of the RF signal being propagated towards the power amplifier. The ET controller applies envelope pre-distortion to the RF signal. The ET controller initiates a function for shaping the supply voltage of the power amplifier by selecting a shaping table that can provide a specific level of increasing amplifier gain at higher signal drive level. The ET controller shapes the supply voltage for the power amplifier by adjusting values corresponding to the detected RF envelope. As a result, RF signals are propagated from the transceiver to the power amplifier output port across high and low transceiver drive levels with net constant gain. | 07-17-2014 |
20140266462 | LOW POWER CONSUMPTION ADAPTIVE POWER AMPLIFIER - An adaptive power amplifier that may be used in a wireless communication device is configured to adjust its load line or output impedance, the number of active amplifier cells in each amplification stage, the bias of the active amplifiers, and the supply voltage input capacitive load in accordance with a supply voltage modulation type provided to the power amplifier.

The baseband processor may also provide a control interface signal to a controller within the adaptive power amplifier. The controller, based on the received control interface signal provides a configuration signal that configures the impedance, the number of active amplifier cells, the bias of the active amplifier cells, and the supply voltage capacitive load to optimize the adaptive power amplifier based on the supply voltage modulation type. | 09-18-2014 |
