According to techniques described herein LO leakage may be automatically minimized in a transmitter chain, even though the leakage may be varying in nature. In an embodiment a target signal for transmission is received. An offset for reducing the effects of the LO leakage is applied to the target signal. After the offset is applied, the target signal is converted to a transmission signal using the LO. A power associated with the transmission signal is determined. The offset is then adjusted based on the power associated with the transmission signal. In another embodiment, the offset signal is adjusted in a manner that minimizes the power associated with the transmission signal.
