Abstract
A method for controlling output signal power in a communication terminal includes determining envelopes of a communication signal to be transmitted by the communication terminal at respective first and second measurement points along a transmission chain in a transmitter of the terminal. A cross-correlation is computed between the envelopes determined at the first and second measurement points. An actual gain between the first and second measurement points is computed using the cross-correlation. An output power of the communication signal is adjusted by setting a gain of the transmitter responsively to the actual gain.
