SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR UWB TRANSMISSION PREDISTORTION AND RF WIRE-BOND INTERFACE TECHNIQUE RELATED APPLICATION

摘要

A method and a system, the system includes: an analog base-band pre-distorter arranged to receive in-phase (I) baseband signals and Quadrature (Q) baseband signals, and to amplify the I baseband signals and the Q baseband signals by a gain function to provide amplified I baseband signals and amplified Q baseband signals; wherein the gain function is responsive to a sum of (a) a square of amplitudes of the I baseband signals and, (b) a square of amplitudes of the B baseband signals; a frequency converter arranged to convert the amplified I and Q baseband signals to radio frequency (RF) signals; an RF amplifier that is arranged to amplify the RF signals to provide amplified RF signals and to output differential RF signals that represent the amplified RF signals through first and second differential output ports of the RF amplifier; a balun comprising a first and second balanced input ports and a single unbalanced output port; and multiple wire-bonds coupled between the balun and the first and second differential output ports of the RF amplifier; wherein at least one wire-bond serve as potential shunt inductor.
