Abstract
A method and an apparatus for controlling a transmit signal of a radio frequency power amplifier are provided. The method includes: adjusting a power supply voltage of the power amplifier to an efficiency point power supply voltage under designated transmit power; querying correspondence between an input voltage and transmit power at each power level under the efficiency point power supply voltage; and adjusting, according to the correspondence, an input voltage to an input voltage corresponding to the designated transmit power. The embodiments of the present invention, the power amplifier is enabled to work at an optimum efficiency point while the transmit power of the power amplifier is under control, which improves efficiency of the power amplifier.
