ABSTRACT:
Embodiments include transmitters, wireless devices, and methods for performing loop delay and gain control. In a transmitter, a gain application element receives and combines digital input samples and a digital gain signal to generate gain-compensated digital samples. A power amplifier receives and amplifies an analog version of the gain-compensated digital samples to generate an antenna output signal. A feedback path generates an analog feedback signal from the antenna output signal, to produce a sequence of digital feedback samples from the analog feedback signal, and generates the digital gain signal from the sequence of digital feedback samples and a loop gain estimate. A loop delay and gain calculator calculates a loop delay estimate from the gain-compensated digital samples and the sequence of digital feedback samples, and calculates the loop gain estimate using the loop delay estimate, the gain-compensated digital samples, and the sequence of digital feedback samples.
