Abstract: Methods and systems for crest factor reduction may comprise generating an original waveform, generating a distortion signal by reducing a crest factor of the original waveform, generating an error signal by subtracting out the original waveform from the distortion signal, and generating a conditioned waveform by adding the error signal to the original waveform. The crest factor of the original waveform may be reduced based on spectral mask requirements. The crest factor of the original waveform may be reduced using a limiter. The power amplifier may comprise a programmable gain amplifier (PGA). The distortion signal may be generated based on a PGA model and/or a predistortion model. A signal from an output of the PA may be fed back to the PGA model. The PGA model may be dynamically configured. The crest factor of the original waveform may be reduced in an analog domain and/or a digital domain.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for dynamic calibration of pre-distortion modification in transmitters. The pre-distortion modification may be applied during processing of an input signal for transmission, and feedback data, relating to the transmitter and/or processing performed after application of the pre-distortion modification in the transmitter, may be obtained. Adjustments to the pre-distortion modification may be determined based on the feedback data, and the adjustments to the pre-distortion modification may be applied in loop-back manner, thus enabling adjustment of pre-distortion modification dynamically based on real-time and current data. The pre-distortion modification may comprise modifying one or more signal characteristics, such as phase, frequency, and/or amplitude. Determining and/or applying the adjustments to the pre-distortion modification may be done periodically, based on one or more particular events, or conditionally.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for adaptive control of pre-distortion during signal transmissions. While applying pre-distortion during processing of an input signal for transmission, feedback data may be generated based on a plurality of feedback signals, and adjustments to the pre-distortion may be applied to the pre-distortion based on the feedback data. Each of feedback signals corresponds to a particular processing stage performed during the processing of the input signal. Generating the feedback data comprises applying adjustments to the plurality of feedback signals based on a type and/or a source of at least one feedback signal, with the adjustments comprising one or more of: applying a gain to one of the plurality of feedback signals; applying a delay to one of the plurality of feedback signals; and modifying a first one of the plurality of feedback signals based on a second one of the plurality of feedback signals.
