An All Digital Qam Modulator with Radio Frequency Output

A software defined radio (SDR) terminal promotes programmable realizations of the physical layer functionalities. A lot of research work has been done in applying digital signal processors (DSP) and field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) to implement the baseband functionalities of the physical layer. In this paper, the programmable solutions are extended to the radio frequency (RF) band for the...

FPGA Implementation of a Hammerstein Based Digital Predistorter for Linearizing RF Power Amplifiers with Memory Effects

Power amplifiers (PAs) are inherently nonlinear elements and digital predistortion is a highly cost-effective approach to linearize them. Although most existing architectures assume that the PA has a memoryless nonlinearity, memory effects of the PAs in many applications ,such as wideband code-division multiple access (WCDMA) or orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), can no longer b...
