7, at small-power section, higher, main amplification branch is arranged as power is smaller in the quiescent current of main amplification branch
(grid voltage of i.e. main amplification branch is as power is smaller and is arranged bigger) is arranged by table lookup in the quiescent current on road;Auxiliary amplification
The grid voltage of branch is smaller and bigger with power, and the grid voltage of auxiliary amplification branch is arranged by table lookup, goes to 8;
8, grid voltage adaptively adjusts completion;Save the grid voltage of setting.
It based on the present embodiment, meets in larger output power, Doherty amplifying circuit ensure that higher efficiency;
In smaller output power, Doherty amplifying circuit ensure that preferable power amplifier initial linear.
In a specific embodiment, it is assumed that the ideal peak power output of a Doherty power amplifier is
55dBm (decibel milliwatt), gain are 15dB (decibels);The main amplification branch quiescent current of the recommendation of Doherty power amplifier is
1000mA (milliampere), grid voltage are about 2.0V (volt), and auxiliary amplification branch grid voltage is 1.0V.Such as according to power and gain distribution rule
Then, when the power of Doherty power amplifier output 50dBm, the input power into Doherty power amplifier is
50dBm-15dB=35dBm.
Usual practical peak power output is generally in the range of the low 3dB of ideal peak power output.Namely actually most
Big output power is no more than 55dBm-3dB=52dBm.Then be set in 55dBm-10dB to 55dBm-3dB range be high-power area
Between, it is high-power section that corresponding the present embodiment, which is in the power bracket of 45dBm~52dBm,;In 55dBm-15dB to 55dBm-
10dB range is middle power interval, and corresponding the present embodiment is then the power interval in the power bracket of 40dBm-45dBm is.?
55dBm-30dB is small-power section to 55dBm-15dB range, and corresponding the present embodiment is the power bracket in 25dBm-40dBm
It is small-power section.
Since the ideal peak power output of Doherty power amplifier can determine in debugging.According to above-mentioned setting,
Doherty amplifying circuit gain is 15dB to calculate, and the high-power peak ranges of Doherty input amplifier are 30dBm
~37dBm, middle power peak range are 25dBm~30dBm and small-power peak ranges are 10dBm~25dBm.Since signal exists
The peak-to-average force ratio that may be used in have it is different, peak power be equal to average power add peak-to-average force ratio.Wherein, common pair
Sound signal peak-to-average force ratio is equal to 3;Spread signal such as CDMA (CDMA), WCDMA (wideband code division multiple access) and the LTE (Long of class
Term Evolution, long term evolution) etc. peak-to-average force ratio can be between 7-10 or higher.To need to only read the equal of signal
It is worth power and peak-to-average force ratio, and is handled by control device, the peak power of signal can be obtained.It need to only judge the peak of signal
It is worth power in which range, can be put according to different signal peak powers adaptively to adjust the master of Doherty amplifying circuit
The grid voltage of big branch and the grid voltage of auxiliary amplification branch.
1 look-up table of table
For Doherty amplifying circuit, when increasing with power, the grid voltage of auxiliary amplification branch can be allowed to become smaller,
Meanwhile the grid voltage of main amplification branch also becomes smaller, and then can guarantee the efficiency of Doherty amplifying circuit always near highest point,
Improve the efficiency of Doherty amplifying circuit;When reducing with power, the grid voltage of auxiliary amplification branch can be allowed to become larger, meanwhile,
The grid voltage of main amplification branch also becomes larger.Specifically, the grid voltage of main amplification branch and the grid voltage of auxiliary amplification branch can be by looking into
Table is arranged, and judges current temperature in which range by main control unit, signal peak power is in which range, by looking into
Table obtains the grid voltage that should currently select.Table is as shown in table 1.For example, when detecting that average power signal is 15dBm, letter
When number peak-to-average force ratio is 8dB, peak power at this time is 23.0dBm.By tabling look-up, the grid voltage for obtaining main amplification branch is
The grid voltage of 2.110V, auxiliary amplification branch are 1.05V.Grid voltage, which is arranged, by table-lookup self-adapting ensure that the stability of index, can
To improve the initial linear index of Doherty power amplifier, efficiency and initial linear index are taken into account, so that Doherty amplifying circuit
Performance be constantly in optimum state.
