Also disclosed is a method for improving the performance of a RF front-end module, particularly on the transmit side. Structural improvements include adding a processor and a memory device to the RF front-end module, a mode of sensing so that the processor can gain information about the devices in the module, and a data bus for supplying condensed information about the modulating signal to the transmitter portion of the module. In the method as disclosed, data from the sensors and from the data bus are combined with stored characterization information to mitigate trapping and drift in transmit devices.
In another aspect, any of the foregoing aspects individually or together, and/or various separate aspects and features as described herein, may be combined for additional advantage. Any of the various features and elements as disclosed herein may be combined with one or more other disclosed features and elements unless indicated to the contrary herein.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate the scope of the present disclosure and realize additional aspects thereof after reading the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments in association with the accompanying drawing figures.
The accompanying drawing figures incorporated in and forming a part of this specification illustrate several aspects of the disclosure and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the disclosure.
