ABSTRACT:
A power delivery system (500) including a power splitter (502), a plurality of power amplifier modules (508) responsive to the power splitter (502), a power combiner (504), and a gateway controller (506) is provided. Each of the plurality of power amplifier modules (508) include an input switch (520), a variable attenuator (524), an RF power amplifier (526) responsive to the variable attenuator (524) and the input switch (520), an output switch (530) responsive to the RF power amplifier (526), and an alarm detector (532) for indicating an alarm condition of the RF power amplifier (526). The power combiner (504) is responsive to the plurality of power amplifier modules (508), and the gateway controller (506) is in communication with each of the plurality of power amplifier modules (508). The plurality of power amplifier modules controlled in accordance to whether a sleep criteria has been met. When a said sleep criteria has been met at least one of the plurality of power amplifier modules is placed into sleep mode, and is then returned to active mode if the sleep criteria is exited.
