Abstract

The invention discloses a device and method for realizing output power control of a power amplifier. The device is characterized in that: a peak value detector 1 and a peak value detector 2 respectively detect an output signal power and an input signal power of the power amplifier; the corresponding output and input power detection voltages are output to an AD (Analogue-to-Digital) converter together; the AD converter converts the output and input power detection voltages into the corresponding output and input power values and transmits the corresponding output and input power values to a power control module; and the power control module obtains an input signal power threshold value under the corresponding power grade according to expected powers under various power grades of a power amplifier and the output and input power values, and controls an output power of the power amplifier in the known power amplifier state. The device and the method provided by the invention effectively prevent a transmitter from being in a saturated status or an over-power status, so as to avoid abnormalities, such as transmission index deterioration of a base station, occurrences of over-cover or over-area cover, and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a power amplifier device and a method for controlling its output power, in particular to a device and method for controlling the output power of a power amplifier in a base station transmitter. Background technique [0002] In the field of wireless communication, the base station transmitter of the Global System of Mobile Communication (GSM, Global System of Mobilecommunication) generally adopts the closed-loop power control method, and its principle block diagram is as follows: figure 1 As shown, the output power of the base station is obtained through the peak voltage detection circuit at the output of the power amplifier (referred to as the power amplifier), and the obtained output power value is compared with the expected power. The comparison result is used to update the calibration value of the power control, and the calibration value is used to control The digitally controlled attenuator at the front end of the p...
