Abstract

A system for estimating a peak compression of a wireless signal is disclosed. The system may include a reference signal generator configured to provide a reference signal, wherein the reference signal is associated with an ideally amplified and time aligned version of the wireless signal. The system may also include a gain error generator configured to provide a gain error signal, wherein the gain error signal is based at least on the reference signal and the wireless signal. Further, the system may also include a peak compression estimator configured to provide a compression detection flag based at least on the reference signal and the gain error signal.
