BASEBAND EQUIVALENT VOLTERRA SERIES FOR BEHAVIORAL MODELING AND DIGITAL PREDISTORTION OF WIDEBAND TRANSMITTERS

摘要

Methods, systems and apparatus for modelling a power amplifier and pre-distorter fed by a multi-band signal are disclosed. According to one aspect, a method includes receiving a multi-band signal and generating a discrete base band equivalent, BBE, Volterra series based on the received multi-band signal, where the series has distortion products grouped according to determined shared kernels. The shared kernels are determined based on a transformation of a real-valued continuous-time pass band Volterra series without pruning of kernels.
