摘要: A power amplifier circuit supporting phase correction in a radio frequency (RF) signal is disclosed. The power amplifier circuit includes a power amplifier configured to amplify an RF signal based on a modulated voltage. The power amplifier circuit also includes a phase correction circuit configured to generate a phase correction signal based on the modulated voltage to thereby cause a phase change in the RF signal before the RF signal is amplified by the power amplifier. As a result, the modulated voltage and the time-variant power envelope can be better aligned in time and/or phase at the power amplifier circuit to thereby improve efficiency and linearity of the power amplifier circuit.

摘要: The signal strength of a vector modulator based phase shifter can be increased enabling signals to be received or transmitted over larger distances than existing phase shifters by applying multiple weights to components of a signal. An input signal can be divided into orthogonal components that can be weighted and combined to generate an intermediate signal. A second intermediate signal can be generated by applying complementary weights to the orthogonal component signal. The two intermediate signals can be combined to obtain the phase shifted signal. By combining complementary weighted component signals, a phase shifted signal with improved signal to noise ratio and greater signal strength can be generated.
