  • Publication number: 20080095266
    Abstract: An adaptive controller for linearization of transmitters using predistortion of the input signal has reduced sensitivity to impairments such as gain variation, phase noise or modulation/demodulation frequency instability by linearizing an adaptively normalized gain provided through a separate estimation and cancellation of linear gain variations. Values of a nonlinear and a linear gain blocks, cascaded with the linearized transmitter and called respectively a predistortion block and a gain regulation block, are independently adjusted by two different adaptive controllers. In one embodiment, four banks of real gain elements compose the predistortion block and realize an arbitrary step-wise approximation of a generalized 2×2 transmit gain matrix of nonlinear functions. In a further embodiment cancellation of a DC level bias multi-channel impairment is provided by an adaptively adjusted signal adder inserted in the transmit chain between the predistortion block and the linearized transmitter.
