An electronic device includes a processor, a modulator, and a power amplifier. The processor receives a baseband signal and executes a first ET shaping function on the baseband signal. The modulator receives the baseband signal, detects the magnitude of the baseband signal, and outputs the first voltage according to the magnitude of the baseband signal. The power amplifier outputs an amplified signal based on the first voltage. The first ET shaping function enables the relationship between the baseband signal and the first voltage to be Vpa=a|X|+b. X is the baseband signal, Vpa is the first voltage, and a and b are constants. The look-up table records the relation curve between the power of the amplified signal and the first voltage when the second ET shaping function is used for envelope tracking.

Electronic device and method for envelope tracking

A method for tuning an envelope tracking (ET) system includes: determining a setting combination from a plurality of setting available to the ET system, wherein determining the setting combination from the plurality of setting available to the ET system includes: determining, by a processing module, a first setting in a plurality of first settings included in the plurality of settings, and configuring the ET system by the first setting; and after the ET system is configured by the first setting, determining, by the processing module, a second setting in a plurality of second settings included in the plurality of settings, and configuring the ET system by the second setting. In addition, the setting combination includes the first setting and the second setting.
