Method and apparatus for transmit power adjustment in radio frequency systems

A method for transmit power adjustment in radio frequency systems, comprising the steps of:

• detecting output power of a transmit channel;
• generating an input value substantially indicative of the output power;
• computing an output value based on a difference multiplied by a predetermined factor, where the difference is between the input value and a target value substantially corresponding to desired output power of the transmit channel;
• and
• adjusting the output power for the transmit channel in accordance with the output value.

An apparatus for transmit power adjustment in radio frequency systems, comprising:

• a detector adapted to detect output power of a transmit channel;
• an input module coupled to the detector, for generating an input value substantially indicative of the output power;
• an output module for accepting an output value that is used to adjust the output power;
• and
• means for computing the output value based on a difference multiplied by a predetermined factor, where the difference is between the input value and a target value substantially corresponding to desired output power of the transmit channel.
