Example ET Measurement

An envelope tracking (ET) measurement is used to evaluate the improvements of power efficiency and output signal performance after using envelope tracking. For a power amplifier (PA), envelope tracking and digital pre-distortion (DPD) can be used together. In this example, only envelope tracking is applied to the PA under test.

The whole measurement process includes the following three parts.

  1. Setting up the measurement system

  2. Configuring parameters in the N7614C software

  3. Executing the measurement and viewing results
