Abstract: Transmitter architectures for a communications system having improved performance over conventional transmitter architectures. The improvements include a combination of the following: faster response time for the control signals, improved linearity, reduced interference, reduced power consumption, lower circuit complexity, and lower costs. For a cellular application, these improvements can lead to increased system capacity, smaller telephone size, increased talk and standby times, and greater acceptance of the product. Circuitry is provided to speed up the response time of a control signal. The control loop for various elements in the transmit signal path are integrated. A gain control mechanism allows for accurate adjustment of the output transmit power level. Control mechanisms are provided to power down the power amplifier, or th e entire transmit signal path, when not needed. The gains of the various elements in the transmit signal path are controlled to reduce transients in the output transmit power, and to also ensure that transients are downward.

Abstract: A power amplifier arrangement comprises a power amplifier (32), an output circulator (55), a bypass path (30) and switches (20,43) for selecting either the power amplifier path or the bypass path. The arrangement comprises furthermore a resistor (45). If the power amplifier path is selected, the resistor (45) absorbs signals originating from the output (54), e.g. due to load mismatch. If the bypass path is selected, the power amplifier (32) provides a high output impedance to the circulator (55) in order to reflect the signal which is applied to the circulator through the bypass path.
