Abstract

See full text

An apparatus comprises an amplifier having an input coupled to a radio frequency signal through a digital-to-analog circuit, an adaptive power supply having an output coupled to a bias voltage of the amplifier, wherein the output of the adaptive power supply is configured to have a shape similar to an envelope of the radio frequency signal and a feedback circuit comprising a sensing circuit and a mapping circuit, wherein the sensing circuit is configured to sense a current flowing from the adaptive power supply to the amplifier and sense the bias voltage of the amplifier, and wherein the mapping circuit is configured to sense the bias voltage of the amplifier, and wherein the mapping circuit is configured to generate a control signal for dynamically adjusting parameters of a low pass filter so as to stabilize the adaptive power supply.
