Electronic system, radio frequency power amplifier and bias voltage point dynamic regulation method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses an electronic system, a radio frequency power amplifier and a bias voltage point dynamic regulation method thereof. The radio frequency power amplifier comprises a bias circuit, an output stage circuit and a dynamic bias voltage control circuit. The bias circuit receives first system voltage and provides working voltage according to the first system voltage. The output stage circuit receives the working voltage so as to work at an operation bias voltage point. The dynamic bias voltage control circuit detects a radio frequency input signal and outputs offset voltage to the bias circuit according to change of the radio frequency input signal and is in an open loop mode. When input power of the radio frequency input signal is improved and accordingly the operation bias voltage point shifts and the working voltage is reduced, the bias circuit increases the working voltage according to received offset voltage so as to recover or improve the operation bias voltage point.

[0003] RF power amplifiers play a very important role in communication systems. In order to achieve better power-...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, when the output power of the amplifier increases to a certain level (level), the load line of the amplifier operating in Class AB mode may enter the cut off region (cut off region), thereby generating gain compression (gain compression), This gain compression results in output power saturation

Since the DC operating point of the class AB amplifier is close to the cutoff region, when the output power of the class AB amplifier increases to a certain level, the gain compression mechanism in the cutoff region will limit the power gain and output power of the class AB amplifier
