Abstract
Disclosed is a linearization method in a mobile communication terminal wherein automatic gain control signals are divided into a plurality of entry regions, and which includes an initial value for a first entry region among the plurality of entry regions, a resolution constant and a slope character value for each entry region for generating a linear automatic gain control signal which guarantee a linearity of amplification gain of an amplifier. The linearization method comprises the steps of: detecting a corresponding entry region using a preset number of bits from the automatic gain control signal which is represented by a plurality of bits and detecting a position value of the detected entry region using the remaining bits except the preset number of bits; generating an initial value of a second entry region using the initial value of the first entry region, an entry region size value and a slope value of the first entry region presented by the resolution constant and a slope character value of the first entry region, and then sequentially generating initial values of the following entry regions using an initial value of a previous entry region, the entry region size value, a slope value of a previous entry region to thereby generate an initial value of the detected entry region; and generating the linear automatic gain control signal by adding a value obtained by multiplying the slope value of the detected entry region by the position value of the entry region and an initial value of a corresponding entry region which is generated by the initial value generator.
