A transmitter (20) includes a peak reduction section (30), a predistorter (98), and an amplifying section (102) biased by a variable bias signal generator (118). The peak reduction section (30) is controlled by a signal magnitude threshold (36) that defines maximum magnitudes for local peaks (32) of a reduced-peak communication signal (38). The bias signal generator (118) is controlled by a bias control signal (110). Both the signal magnitude threshold (36) and the bias control signal (110) are derived from a common reduced bandwidth (50) peak-tracking signal (42). The peak-tracking signal (42) is derived from an inflated-peak communication signal (26). The predistorter (98) applies distortion to the reduced-peak communication signal (38) that is configured, at least in part, by the bias control signal (110). |
