  • Patent number: 12652067
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus are provided in which a first signal is received at a bi-directional coupler of an antenna path. A first power, delivered to an antenna of the antenna path, is measured based on a second signal corresponding to a forward signal provided from the bi-directional coupler to the antenna and a third signal corresponding to a reverse signal reflected back to the bi-directional coupler from the antenna. A power correction value is determined based on a ratio of the second signal to the third signal and a one-to-one relationship of the ratio to a load reflection coefficient of the antenna. A second power delivered to the antenna is determined based on the first power and the power correction value.

  • Patent number: 11418155
    Abstract: A RF-digital hybrid mode power amplifier system for achieving high efficiency and high linearity in wideband communication systems is disclosed. The present invention is based on the method of adaptive digital predistortion to linearize a power amplifier in the RF domain. The power amplifier characteristics such as variation of linearity and asymmetric distortion of the amplifier output signal are monitored by the narrowband feedback path and controlled by the adaptation algorithm in a digital module. Therefore, the present invention could compensate the nonlinearities as well as memory effects of the power amplifier systems and also improve performances, in terms of power added efficiency, adjacent channel leakage ratio and peak-to-average power ratio. The present disclosure enables a power amplifier system to be field reconfigurable and support multi-modulation schemes (modulation agnostic), multi-carriers and multi-channels.
