Abstract:
The representative embodiments discussed in the present disclosure relate to techniques in which the operating characteristics (e.g., power consumption) of a power amplifier in a transceiver may be regulated according to an operation mode of the transceiver. More specifically, in some embodiments, different LUTs may be employed for each mode of operation to suitably adjust the supply voltage (e.g., bias voltage) and/or quiescent current input to the power amplifier based on an input signal and a margin by which transmission standards are met. Further, in some embodiments, a method to calibrate a LUT for average power tracking and/or envelope tracking in a transceiver mode of operation may be employed to populate a LUT that may be used to suitably adjust the power and/or current consumption of the power amplifier.

Claim (Index 5):
The transmitter of  claim 3 , wherein the control circuit comprises:\n an input analysis circuit having a first look up table corresponding to the first mode of operation and a second look up table corresponding to the second mode of operation, the input analysis circuit being configured to: receive an unprocessed signal; and in the first mode of operation:\n generate an unprocessed voltage supply signal based at least in part on one or more characteristics of the unprocessed signal and on the first look up table; and \n generate an unprocessed quiescent current signal based at least in part on the one or more characteristics of the unprocessed signal and on the first look up table; and \n in the second mode of operation:\n generate the unprocessed voltage supply signal based at least in part on the one or more characteristics of the unprocessed signal and on the second look up table; and \n generate the unprocessed quiescent current signal based at least in part on the one or more characteristics of the unprocessed signal and on the second look up table; \n a voltage supply digital-to-analog converter (DAC) operably coupled to the input analysis circuit, the voltage supply DAC being configured to convert the unprocessed voltage supply signal to an analog signal; a current supply DAC operably coupled to the input analysis circuit, the current supply DAC being configured to convert the unprocessed quiescent current signal to the quiescent current signal; and a dynamic voltage supply circuit operably coupled to the voltage supply DAC, the dynamic voltage supply circuit being configured to receive the analog signal and configured to generate the voltage supply signal.
