1. A method for calibrating an amplifier, comprising:

  • providing a plurality of bias signal combinations to an amplifier configured to amplify an input signal to generate an output signal, wherein each of the plurality of bias signal combinations comprises a respective first bias signal and a respective second bias signal to be provided to the amplifier for controlling a first amplifier performance parameter and a second amplifier performance parameter in the output signal, respectively;

    receiving a plurality of performance indication signals comprising a plurality of measurements corresponding to the plurality of bias signal combinations, respectively, wherein each of the plurality of measurements comprises the first amplifier performance parameter and the second amplifier performance parameter;

    ranking the plurality of measurements;

    determining a selected bias signal combination among the plurality of bias signal combinations corresponding to a selected ranked measurement among the plurality of measurements; and

    controlling the amplifier to operate based on the selected bias signal combination.
