1. A method of optimizing an envelope tracking transmitter, the envelope tracking transmitter including an envelope tracking amplification stage arranged to receive an input signal to be amplified and a power supply voltage tracking the envelope of the input signal to be amplified, a receiver being located with the transmitter, the method comprising:

  • generating an amplified signal for transmission at the output of the amplifier;

    tuning the receiver to a frequency to reject the intended transmit signal of the transmitter;

    determining a characteristic of a signal detected in the receiver representing an indication of distortion in the transmitted signal; and

    adjusting a setting of the transmitter in dependence on the determined characteristic.
