A method of closed-loop antenna tuning (CLAT) search strategy based on maximum Relative Transducer Gain (RTG) is proposed. A search region that account for TX input mismatch and forward voltage gain is pre-computed. The search region that is independent of antenna load can be pre-computed to reduce the computation complexity. The Maximum RTG is searched by estimating antenna S-parameters corresponding to a good load match. The search is conducted between the peak forward voltage gain and the best load match. Global optimal with reasonable RTG can be found with limited number of iterations. The transmitter search region can further be constrained by the receiver path mismatching.

A method of calibrating an envelope tracking system for a supply voltage for a power amplifier module within a radio frequency (RF) transmitter module of a wireless communication unit. The method includes, within at least one signal processing module of the wireless communication unit, applying a training signal having an envelope that varies with time to an input of the RF transmitter module, receiving at least an indication of instantaneous output signal values for the power amplifier module in response to the training signal, calculating instantaneous gain values based at least partly on the received output power values, and adjusting a mapping function between an instantaneous envelope of a waveform signal to be amplified by the power amplifier module and the power amplifier module supply voltage to achieve a constant power amplifier module gain.

A quadrature transmitter includes a first and second matched transmitter path. Each transmitter path receives respective sets of quadrature baseband signals. At least one local oscillator port receives respective sets of quadrature LO signals. Mixer stage(s) respectively multiply the sets of quadrature baseband signals with the respective sets of quadrature LO signals to produce a respective output radio frequency signal. A combiner combines the output RF signals. The first set of quadrature signals is a substantially 45° phase shifted version of the second set of quadrature signals; and the first set of quadrature LO signals is a reverse substantially 45° phase shifted version of the second set of quadrature LO signals. A baseband error correction circuit corrects a phase error between the quadrature baseband signals at baseband and a LO error correction circuit corrects a phase error between the quadrature baseband signals at a LO frequency.

A system is described that comprises: a master device and a slave device. The slave device comprises: a first die comprising an interface comprising a decoder configured to support a MIPI™ RFFE slave protocol; at least one second die comprising a simplified address decoder, operably coupled to the first die; and a shared control bus that is configured to support at least a clock signal and a data signal shared between the master device and the at least one second die on the slave device. The interface of the first die is configured to generate at least one circuit enable signal, routed to the at least one second die. The simplified address decoder is configured to process the clock signal and the data signal in response to the at least one circuit enable signal. In this manner, by partitioning the protocol handling to a protocol decoder in a first die, and one or more second die that support a simplified address decoder, the first die is able to individually select the die to receive a data frame by generating and routing the enable signal.
