Abstract:
Envelope Tracking (ET) system in itself is a complicated system comprising of many small sub-blocks. In this paper, we present a systematic design flow for designing an ET system and analyse some important aspects of implementation in bulk CMOS technology. Three tier ET system is introduced for analysis and respective simulation results are produced using SpectreRF(r).
