Abstract

A cellular telephone includes a plurality of power amplifiers having a common operating region. If one of the amplifiers has to be deselected, a desired moment for the switching to another amplifier is defined based upon a predetermined transmission interrupt criterion. The power continues to be adjusted with the currently selected amplifier until the instant of switch over. Switching to the other amplifier may then be performed after the transmission has been interrupted.
