Abstract
The present invention eliminates the need for complex impedance networks or parallel amplification stages for multi-mode mobile terminals. A wideband power amplifier is configured to amplify signals in different frequency bands corresponding to different operating modes. The supply voltage of the wideband power amplifier is adjusted in light of the load impedance of radiating circuitry to achieve a desired output power for the respective operating modes.
