摘要:

A triangular memory polynomial (TMP) predistorter is presented in this paper to linearize a power amplifier’s nonlinear with memory effects. Compared with the traditional memory polynomial (MP) predistorter, the coefficients of TMP predistorter is reduced more than 75%, which can effectively decrease the implementation complexity. The coefficients of predistorter are directly extracted from an offline system identification process by an open-loop structure in our approach. Several signals with data rate 5 MHz, 10 MHz, 15 MHz and 20 MHz are used to verify the performance of the proposed predistorter. Experimental results show that the proposed TMP predistorter and the traditional MP predistorter almost have the same performance.
