Modelling and Identification of a Nonlinear Power-amplifier with Memory for Nonlinear Digital Adaptive Pre-distortion
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper a comparison between a memoryless nonlinear power amplifier model and a special nonlinear model with memory (Wiener-model) based on measurements on a power amplifier is presented. With moderate signal bandwidths of only 2MHz the nonlinear model with memory outperforms the memoryless model. The amplifier model is intended to be used for pre-distortion purposes. Furthermore, an adaptive algorithm for finding the model parameters is presented.

متن کاملFPGA 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...
متن کاملNeural Network Modelling of Nonlinear Channels with Memory
Several nonlinear adaptive techniques have been proposed for modelling nonlinear channels with memory. These techniques include Volterra series, wavelet networks, neural networks, etc. See [11, 6] for a review. For example, adaptive Volterra series have been applied in [1] for modelling digital satellite channels. These Volterra models do not characterize each element of the channel. They provi...
