Abstract
An envelope tracking (ET) radio frequency (RF) front-end circuit receives a single tracking signal (e.g., Vramp) from a baseband transceiver and generates a plurality of control signals (Vcc). The control signals are created by a multiple control signal generator circuit based on a calculated load estimate for each relevant power amplifier. The load estimate may be calculated from a sensed current and voltage. By providing control signals optimized for loads presented to the power amplifiers, the overall efficiency of the transmitter is improved.
