ABSTRACT:
A gain control process (1102) executed at a transmitter (500) generates (1314) a gain ramp signal (1206) having a delay component (1224) and a gain component (1226). The process (1102) further generates (1304) and incorporates (1306) a gain arc (1202) into a digital signal to form a digital gain signal (1204) having a digital gain change (1218). A combiner (502) combines a digital input signal (512) with the digital gain signal (1204) to generate a pre-compensated digital signal (516). A variable gain amplifier (508) applies a sequence of gains (1234,1236,1238,1240,1242) in the gain component (1126) of the gain ramp signal (1206) to a pre-adjusted analog signal (520) in order to generate a gain-adjusted analog signal (524). Application of the gain component (1126) and the digital gain change (1218) occurs when a portion (1212) of the gain arc (1202) indicates a low instantaneous signal power at an antenna (106) in order to reduce ACLR degradation.
