<p>A predistorter includes: a divider that divides an input signal and supplies the divided input signal to a linear transmission path and a distortion generating path; a (2k-1)th-order distortion generator that raises the signal supplied to the distortion generating path to the (2k-1)th power to generate a distortion component; a vector adjuster that adjusts the amplitude and phase of the output of the (2k-1)th-order distortion generator; and an adder that sums up the output of the vector adjuster and the output of the linear transmission path to generate a predistorted signal r(t), in which the (2k-1)th-order distortion generator comprises: a (2k-1)th-order multiplier (27B4) that raises the divided signal to the (2k-1)th power; a lower-than-(2k-1)th-order multiplier (27B3, 27B2, 27B1) that raises the divided signal to the 5th, 3rd and 1st power, respectively; a vector adjuster (27C3, 27C2, 27C1) that adjusts the amplitude and phase of the output of the lower-than-(2k-1)th-order multiplier; and an adder (27D) that sums up the output of the vector adjuster and the output of the (2k-1)th-order multiplier.
