Power amplifier apparatus, transmitter apparatus, and method of controlling the power amplifier apparatus

摘要

A power amplifier apparatus includes an amplifier configured to amplify an input signal converted into an analog signal, a distortion compensator configured to perform a pre-distortion process to an input signal at a second sampling rate higher than a first sampling rate at which the input signal is converted into an analog signal, a remover configured to remove a frequency component exceeding a frequency band corresponding to the first sampling rate from the input signal subjected to the pre-distortion process, a first rate converter configured to convert a sampling rate of the input signal from which the frequency component is removed from the second sampling rate to the first sampling rate, and a first signal converter configured to convert the input signal the sampling rate of which is converted into an analog signal at the first sampling rate to supply the input signal converted into the analog signal to the amplifier.
