SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING FAST TRANSMISSION OUTPUT POWER TRANSITION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17943400 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING FAST TRANSMISSION OUTPUT POWER TRANSITION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application focuses on compensating for gain drift in a transmitter of an electronic device when switching output power levels. This is achieved by introducing a gain compensation signal into the transmitter to mitigate any undesirable gain increase during low power symbols.
- The innovation involves introducing a gain compensation signal into the transmitter to counteract gain increase during low power symbols.
- A power control loop is implemented to adjust and refine the compensation signal, ensuring the transmitter reaches the desired output power level within the interval.
- By raising the voltage supply of a power amplifier during low power symbols and using the gain compensation signal, distortion of the transmission signal can be minimized or eliminated.
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in cellular network applications where transmitter power levels need to be frequently adjusted to maintain signal quality and integrity.
Problems Solved
1. Gain drift and increase during low power symbols in transmitters. 2. Distortion of transmission signals due to power level switching. 3. Ensuring the transmitter reaches the desired output power level within a specified interval.
Benefits
1. Improved signal quality and integrity in cellular networks. 2. Mitigation of gain drift and increase during power level switching. 3. Enhanced efficiency and performance of transmitters in electronic devices.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing Transmitter Performance in Cellular Networks: Enhancing signal quality and reliability by compensating for gain drift during power level adjustments.
Original Abstract Submitted
This disclosure is directed to compensating for gain drift due to switching the output power of a transmitter of an electronic device. In some cellular network applications, the transmit power level of a transmitter may be frequently adjusted from a low power level to a high power level. If the power level is not switched to the desired power level within a given interval, the transmission signal may be distorted. To enable the transmitter to reach a desired output power within the interval, the voltage supply of a power amplifier may be raised during a low power symbol, which may produce an undesirable gain increase. To mitigate or eliminate the low power symbol gain increase, a gain compensation signal may be introduced into the transmitter. The compensation signal may be adjusted and refined by implementing a power control loop, the power control loop may include a signal generator.
