摘要
This paper describes an efficient feedforward linearizer suitable for base station 3G power amplifiers based on and using both software-defined radio and quadrature digital up-conversion technologies. The linearizer accomplishes the extraction of the PA complex nonlinear behavior in real time and performs a numerical quasi-perfect carrier's cancellation that allows the reduction of the power rating of the error amplifier (EA) and eliminates the requirement for any output delay line. This enhances the overall power efficiency of the feedforward amplifier. The entire system is validated using DSP/RF cosimulation for the LDMOS model of a typical 44 dBm class AB power amplifier (PA(AB)) as the main amplifier.
