SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING AN INPUT TO A DISTRIBUTED POWER AMPLIFYING SYSTEM

摘要

A system and a method for providing an input to a distributed power amplifying system are provided. In an embodiment, a distributed power amplifying system includes a plurality of amplifying sections (102, 104, 106, and 108) and a plurality of drivers (110, 112, 114, and 116). Each of the plurality of drivers receives a common transmit signal (118) and an individual control signal (120, 122, 124, and 126). Each of the plurality of drivers independently preconditions the common transmit signal, to provide a transmit output signal (128, 130, 132, and 134) to each of the plurality of amplifying sections. The common transmit signal provided to each of the plurality of drivers is preconditioned, based on the individual control signal.
