    Power Adaptive Decomposed Vector Rotation Based Digital Predistortion for RF Power Amplifiers in Dynamic Power Transmission
    (IEEE, 2017-01-18) ;
    In this paper, a power adaptive digital predistortion (DPD) model is proposed to linearize RF power amplifiers (PAs) operated in dynamic power transmissions. By employing the decomposed vector rotation (DVR) based nonlinear weighting technique to adjust the DPD coefficients dynamically, the distortion induced by the dynamic power operation can be effectively compensated. Experimental test results with a high power Gallium Nitride (GaN) Doherty PA confirm that higher linearization performance can be achieved by employing this model, compared to that using the existing approaches.

    Simplified online coefficients updating for digital predistortion of wideband/multi-band RF power amplifiers
    (IEEE, 2015-12-09) ; ;
    In this paper, a simplified online coefficients updating technique is proposed to realize real-time timing of digital predistortion (DPD) for RF power amplifiers (PAs), particularly focusing on wideband and concurrent multi-band scenarios. It is achieved by equally weighting the memory terms in conventional DPD models that leads to a significant reduction of numerical calculation complexity in the coefficients updating process and thus saves time and power during real system operation. To validate the proposed method, both wideband LTE- A (100 MHz) and concurrent dual-band (20 MHz + 20 MHz) cases have been tested. Experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve excellent performance with significant reduction of system complexity compared to the conventional approaches.
