چکیده
The study of a Digital Cartesian loop transmitter as power amplifier linearization technique is presented. It is based on Cartesian loop architecture but introducing the advantages and possibilities of using digital solutions. Stability is assured by including some adjustment elements in the loop and the digital implementation avoids modulator and demodulator impairments and provides an accurate control and compensation of loop delay.

New Architectures for RF Power Amplifier Linearization
Power amplifier linearization has become an important part of the transmitter system as 3G and developing 4G communication standards require higher linearity than ever before. The thesis proposes two power amplifier linearization solutions : two-point architecture and adaptive digital predistortion using a AE modulator for automatic inversion of power amplifier nonlinearity. Two-point architect...
متن کاملRF PA Linearization: Open-loop Digital Predistortion Using Cartesian Feedback for Adaptive PA Characterization
This work combines the advantages of two different RF power amplifier (PA) linearization techniques: digital predistortion (DPD) and Cartesian feedback (CFB). Cartesian feedback, an extension of classical continuoustime feedback, is limited by the bandwidth of its loop transfer function; this bandwidth, in turn, puts an upper limit on the bandwidth of the data input. However, this limitation gi...

A digital look-up table adaptive predistortion technique using a six-port receiver for power amplifier linearization is presented. The system is designed in Ka-band for a DVB-S2 satellite link. We use a six-port receiver at the linearizationloop in place of classic heterodyne receivers. The six-port receiver is implemented by the use of passive microwavecircuits and detector diodes. This approa...
متن کاملA hybrid Cartesian loop and envelope modulated PA linear transmitter architecture
A high efficiency and linearity P A solution is presented based on hybrid linearisation schemes that employ complementary techniques to overcome the weakness (or constraints) of either method on its own. I n particular, the high linearity of Cartesian loop is combined with the high efficiency of Envelope Elimination and Restoration (EER). The results of a prototype hybrid linearised PA built us...
متن کاملStatement On The Contribution
Modern digital communication systems utilize OFDM and DS-CDMA signals because of their superior spectral efficiency and multiple access properties respectively. Examples of such systems include digital television (DVB-T), digital radio (DAB) and 3 Generation mobile (WCDMA). A downside to using these signals however is the need to accommodate their very high Crest Factor, also known as Peak-to-A...
