Apparatus and method for power transmitter in wireless communication system

Abstract

An apparatus and a method for an Envelope Elimination and Restoration (EER) power transmitter are provided. The apparatus includes a signal separator for splitting a transmit signal to an amplitude component and a phase component, an orthogonal modulator for modulating the phase component into a Radio Frequency (RF) signal, a bias modulator for linearly amplifying the amplitude component, for determining a bias voltage according to a magnitude of the amplitude component, and for providing a current generated using the determined bias voltage to a high-efficiency power amplifier and the high-efficiency power amplifier for amplifying the RF signal using the linearly amplified amplitude component as a drain bias voltage and using the generated current as a drain bias current.
