Abstract

Systems, circuits and methods related to dynamic error vector magnitude (DEVM) corrections. In some embodiments, a power amplifier (PA) system can include a PA circuit having a plurality of amplification stages, and a bias system in communication with the PA circuit and configured to provide bias signals to the amplification stages. The PA system can further include a first correction circuit configured to generate a correction current that results in an adjusted bias signal for a selected amplification stage, with the adjusted bias signal being configured to compensate for an error vector magnitude (EVM) during a dynamic mode of operation. The PA system can further include a second correction circuit configured to change the correction current based on an operating condition associated with the PA circuit.
