This brief demonstrates a new adaptive digital predistortion architecture particularly suited to mobile handset applications. The central idea is to build a lookup table (LUT) that directly captures the static compressive nonlinearity of the power amplifier (PA) and then insert this LUT into the feedback path of a ΔΣ modulator. The oversampled ΔΣ modulator automatically performs both the invers...

This paper introduces a recursive algorithm of Kalman filter for digital predistorter parameters extraction based on memory polynomials predistorter model. The predistorter model is firstly formulated as linear regression expression. Then we derive the state-space equation of the model and attain the steps of the algorithm. Finally, the accuracy and stability of the algorithm is proved by simul...

This paper describes the use of the MATLAB in the laboratory experiments in our Signal Processing Laboratory. One of the most important applications that we are currently working on is the algorithms verification for the linearization of power amplifiers using digital baseband adaptive predistortion. In order to test the operation of the predistorter on digitally modulated signals, the experime...

In wireless communication systems, high-power transmitters suffer from nonlinearities due to power amplifier (PA) characteristics, I/Q imbalance, and local oscillator (LO) leakage. Digital Predistortion (DPD) is an effective technique to counteract these impairments. To help maximize agility in cognitive radio systems, it is important to investigate dynamically reconfigurable DPD systems that a...
