Abstract

See full text

Embodiments provide systems and methods for aligning the supply voltage signal applied to a power amplifier (PA) with the radio frequency (RF) output signal of the PA in a wireless device. The RF output signal is generated by applying a transmit signal to a transmit path of the wireless device. The supply voltage is generated by applying an envelope tracking (ET) signal, based on the transmit signal, to an envelope tracking (ET) path of the wireless device. Embodiments operate by estimating the delays of the ET path and the transmit path, and then controlling a relative delay between the transmit signal and the ET signal accordingly. In an embodiment, estimation of the delays of the ET path and the transmit path is done by correlating respective signals of each path.
