TLDR
In this article, a power control circuit used for both analog/digital dual mode is disclosed, which comprises a switching circuit (17) for applying the feedback signal to the gain control terminal (40) of the power amplifier (2) and applying a fixed bias voltage to the attenuation control terminal(30) of a variable attenuator (10) so that the amplifier operates as a C class amplifier in the case of analog mode, and a voltage control unit (VCU) for controlling the bias voltage.
Abstract
A power control circuit used for both analog/digital dual mode is disclosed which comprises a switching circuit (17) for applying the feedback signal to the gain control terminal (40) of the power amplifier (2) and applying a fixed bias voltage to the attenuation control terminal (30) of the attenuator (10) so that the amplifier operates as a C class amplifier in the case of analog mode, and for applying the feedback signal to the attenuation control terminal (30) of the variable attenuator (10) and applying the predetermined bias voltage to the gain control terminal (40) of the power amplifier (2) so that the amplifier operates as an A class amplifier in the case of digital mode. In the present invention, as a single amplifier operates for both analog mode and digital mode, the configuration is simplified and assembled cheaply.

Method and apparatus for increasing receiver immunity to interference

TL;DR: In this paper, the power level of a received signal is detected and a receiver processing measures the gain change in the IF signal power (1605), if the change is less than the predetermined amount (1610), the CDMA signal and jammers are below the noise floor and therefore the gain is increased (1615).
