Abstract: A method to control adjustable power levels uses a network of attenuators that includes a fixed attenuation and a variable attenuation. The method adjusts the variable attenuation to approach the fixed attenuation, provides gain to an attenuated signal in an amount proximate to the fixed attenuation to generate a compensated signal, and compares power levels of a non-attenuated signal and the compensated signal to generate a first error signal.
