1. A method for regulating power in a front-end circuit, the method comprising:

  • determining, along a first communication path, an envelope of a baseband signal;

    generating at least one voltage control signal based on said determined envelope of said baseband signal; and

    adjusting one or both of power and/or gain of the front-end circuit using said generated at least one voltage control signal, wherein said baseband signal is communicated to the front-end circuit using a second communication path, and wherein signal delay along said second communication path is matched with signal delay along said first communication path.
