  • Patent number: 9735741
    Abstract: Aspects of this disclosure relate to a receiver for digital predistortion (DPD). The receiver includes an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) having a sampling rate that is lower than a signal bandwidth of an output of a circuit having an input that is predistorted by DPD. DPD can be updated based on feedback from the receiver. According to certain embodiments, the receiver can be a narrowband receiver configured to observe sub-bands of the signal bandwidth. In some other embodiments, the receiver can include a sub-Nyquist ADC.
