Abstract

An apparatus and method for controlling wireless transmission. The apparatus, which controls a transmitter that provides an output signal by upconverting and amplifying an input signal, includes a memory configured to store first calibration data representing a saturation power and a linear gain of a reference transmitter as functions of operating conditions of the reference transmitter. A controller may be configured to estimate a saturation power and a linear gain of the transmitter of the apparatus based on operating conditions of the transmitter and the first calibration data. The controller may generate at least one control signal for controlling an operation of the transmitter based on a saturation power difference between the estimated saturation power and a target saturation power and a linear gain difference between the estimated linear gain and a target linear gain.
