<p>A transmitter (604) of a TDMA cellular telephone (600) includes power control circuitry (100) comprised of variable gain stage (104), mixer (106), bandpass filter (109), RF amplifier (110), and directional coupler (112) in a forward path, and two detectors (116 and 117), four A/D converters (118, 119, 121 and 123), digital controller (120), and D/A converter (126) in a feedback path. In operation, the variable gain stage (104) is responsive to a gain control signal AOCCNT (128) for adjusting a modulated IF signal, which is then mixed in mixer (106) with an RF reference signal to produce the transmit RF signal. The temperature and supply voltage are sampled by controller (120) at the beginning of each time slot. Adjustments in the gain control signal (128) dictated by the sampled temperature and supply voltage are made by controller (120) in each time slot prior to keying the RF amplifier (110). The transmit RF signal is amplified by the RF amplifier (110) to produce the transmit output signal which is coupled by the directional coupler (112) and transmit filter (618) to an antenna (620) for transmission. The forward power and reverse power of the transmit output signal are sampled by controller (120) at the end of each time slot. The sampled forward power is used by controller (120) in calculating the value of the gain control signal for the next time slot. If the sampled reverse power or supply voltage exceed respective maximum values, the RF amplifier (110) is dekeyed by controller (120).</p> |
