Abstract
Methods and systems for amplitude-modulating a power amplifier based on sensed current and sensed voltage provided to the power amplifier are provided. The sensed current and sensed voltage may be summed to provided both current and voltage feedback to modulate the power supplied to the power amplifier. Alternatively, both the current feedback and the voltage feedback may be selectively utilized to modulate the power supplied to the power amplifier.
