Abstract

The embodiments of the present invention include a bias circuit for a power-amplifying device, which receives and amplifies an input RF signal having a series of RF cycles within a modulation envelop. The bias circuit compensates odd-order distortion processes by detecting the power in the input signal and providing a dynamic adjustment to a bias stimulus for the power-amplifying device within a time scale of the modulation envelope.
