Abstract
At least one embodiment relates to a radio-frequency (RF) power amplifier system for amplifying a first RF signal. The RF power amplifier system includes a RF power amplifier being configured to amplify a second RF signal. The RF power amplifier system also includes a control loop for controlling a power level of the second RF signal. The control loop includes a RF output power determining unit for determining a power level of the amplified second RF signal. The control loop also includes a gain determining unit for determining an actual large signal gain based on the determined power level of the amplified second RF signal and a power level of the second RF signal. Further, the control loop includes an attenuator for attenuating the first RF signal and for providing the attenuated first RF signal to the RF power amplifier as the second RF signal.
