DOHERTY POWER AMPLIFIER HAVING AM-AM COMPENSATION |
摘要 |
A power amplification system includes a Doherty power amplifier (PA) configured to receive a voltage supply signal and a radio-frequency (RF) signal and generate an amplified RF signal using the voltage supply signal, the Doherty PA including a carrier amplifier and a peaking amplifier. A carrier amplifier bias circuit and a peaking amplifier bias circuit coupled to one or more of the carrier amplifier and the carrier amplifier bias circuit over a coupling path are provided wherein the peaking amplifier bias circuit is configured to provide a peaking bias signal to the peaking amplifier based on a saturation level of the carrier amplifier. |
