【発明の名称】電力増幅器の適応線形化
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2003513498
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A method and apparatus adaptively compensates for nonlinearities of a power amplifier by measuring a distortion characteristic across the power amplifier during amplification of a distortion detection signal. The distortion detection signal has a well-defined input power versus time relationship, such as ramp-up signal or ramp-down signal. Due to this well-defined relationship, the distortion characteristic can be calculated as a function of the input power level. This calculated function is then utilized to update a predistortion lookup table.
