Nonlinear pre-distortion modulator and long loop control

摘要

Method for predistortion compensation for nonlinear distortion produced by the non-linear power amplifier of the QAM signal at the transmitter side of the direct digital communication channel. The out-of-band signal power is monitored by the existent receiver at the receive side of the direct propagation channel. The nonlinear distortion compensation signal is generated at the receiver/demodulator side of the direct propagation channel and transmitted across the direct propagation channel to an input of a pre-distortion block at the transmitter/modulator side of the direct propagation channel. The nonlinear distortion compensation signal is used to adjust the set of parameters of the pre-distortion block in order to minimize the out-of-band power produced by the non-linear amplifier (NLA).
