Abstract

See full text

The subject matter described herein relates to envelope shaping in envelope tracking power amplification. A method, apparatus and computer storage medium are provided for envelope shaping in envelope tracking power amplification. In an embodiment, the method comprises performing an envelope shaping operation on reference envelope signals in a time domain to obtain shaped envelope signals; performing a signal quality control on the shaped envelope signals in a frequency domain; and converting the shaped envelope signals from the frequency domain into the time domain to obtain resulting shaped envelope signals. In such a way, a better signal quality can be provided without any modifications to the receiver side. And in turn, the PAPR of the envelope signal may be reduced before entering into a supply modulator and the efficiency of the ET supply modulator could be improved. As a result, the ET PA system performance can be enhanced.
