Abstract: Digital predistortion (DPD) timing alignment in a remote unit(s) for a wireless communications system (WCS) is disclosed. In examples discussed herein, a remote unit includes a power amplifier (PA) configured to amplify a radio frequency (RF) signal before transmission. The RF signal may include an unwanted distortion term and a DPD circuit is provided in the remote unit to create an artificial distortion term to help cancel out the unwanted distortion term. The remote unit includes a DPD front-end circuit configured to generate a digital training signal corresponding to a predefined waveform pattern. The DPD circuit can be configured to perform a DPD timing alignment based on the predefined waveform pattern to determine a timing offset that is need to create the artificial distortion term. As such, it may be possible to effectively cancel the unwanted distortion term in the RF signal to improve efficiency and linearity of the PA.
