1. A transmitter for a wireless communications device, wherein the transmitter comprises:

  • a power amplification block comprising;

    a pre-amplifier configured to amplify a transmission signal to produce a pre-amplified transmission signal; and

    a power amplifier coupled to the pre-amplifier and configured to amplify the pre-amplified transmission signal to produce an amplified transmission signal; and

    a power management block comprising;

    a power supply block configured to generate and provide a supply voltage signal and to the power amplifier; and

    a compensating control block configured to adjust an automatic gain control (AGC) signal for controlling pre-amplifier gain, the compensating control block being coupled to the output of the power supply block to generate a gain correction signal based on the supply voltage signal to modify the AGC signal.
