Abstract

Method for controlling the power gain for outputting a transmitted signal from a radio device. At the beginning of the transmitted signal, the output power is increased to a preset power level along a preset characteristic curve. At the end of the transmitted signal, the preset power is decreased along the preset characteristic curve. The power gain is controlled accordingly by a control signal (8, 9). A reference control signal (5) is used for the rising and falling edges of the control signal (8, 9). The control signal (8, 9) is limited to a preset maximum control signal value (6, 7).
