  • Patent number: 10177719
    Abstract: A method for predistorting an input signal of an amplifier device comprises evaluating a selection criterion for a computational model of the amplifier device. The computational model provides an output signal of the amplifier device for the input signal of the amplifier device. Further, the method comprises selecting between a first computational model of the amplifier device and a second computational model of the amplifier device based on the evaluated selection criterion. Additionally, the method comprises predistorting the input signal of the amplifier device using the selected computational model.

  • Patent number: 10097141
    Abstract: An apparatus to apply frequency selective digital predistortion (DPD) to a power amplifier (PA) circuit is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a first transformation circuit configured to receive a PA input comprising a quantity indicative of an input signal of the PA circuit and process the PA input by applying a first predetermined weighted function, to form a processed PA input, and a second transformation circuit configured to receive a PA output comprising a quantity indicative of an output signal of the PA circuit and process the PA output by applying a second predetermined weighted function, to form a processed PA output. The apparatus further comprises a coefficient computation circuit configured to receive the processed PA input and the processed PA output; and estimate distortion coefficients, to be utilized for predistorting the input signal of the PA circuit, based on the processed PA input and the processed PA output.

  • Patent number: 10075201
    Abstract: An adaptive controller for a nonlinear system includes a Volterra filter having a transfer function defined by P coefficients. The controller includes an alignment/compensation circuit, which aligns the input samples to the output samples of the nonlinear system. The controller generates a P×P matrix using at least one of input samples to, or output samples from the nonlinear system and normalizes each element of the P×P matrix using a respective normalization factor. The controller generates and solves a system of P linear equations from the P×P matrix and a P×1 matrix derived from input and output samples of the nonlinear system using Cholesky decomposition that may include Fast Inverse Square Root operations and forward backward elimination to generate P values. The controller multiplies each of the P values by an inverse of a respective one of the normalization factors to generate the P coefficients for the Volterra filter.

  • Patent number: 9843959
    Abstract: Described herein are technologies related to an implementation for dynamic adjustment of an out-of-band emission in a wireless modem, including spurious emissions, such as a Wi-FI modem, to minimize interference on a collocated or co-running downlink reception of another wireless modem residing on the same device by dynamically adjustment of a power consumption.
