Digital compensation for nonlinearities in a polar transmitter

摘要

A polar transmitter includes a digital processor coupled to receive a complex modulated digital signal and a feedback signal produced from the complex modulated digital signal and that is operable to compare the complex modulated digital signal to the feedback signal to determine an error signal indicative of a difference between the complex modulated digital signal and the feedback signal. The digital processor is further operable to produce a correction signal from the error signal and to add the correction signal to the complex modulated digital signal to produce a corrected complex modulated digital signal.
