Zusammenfassung: | In this paper, a new architecture for baseband digital predistortion dedicated to wide-band transmissions is presented. The proposed predistorter consists of a cascade of a static lookup-table-based predistorter and a subband filtering block. The subband filtering technique is used to improve the correction bandwidth limitation of conventional architectures. The cases of four- and eight-subband decomposition were considered and compared to the case where the full-band signal is processed. This revealed that the subband processing results in a better sensitivity and an independent tuning ability of the predistorter at each subband. In addition, it was shown that, in the proposed predistorter, the computational complexity and the required processing speed are reduced proportionally to the number of subbands. Moreover, in an adaptive digital predistortion context, a quicker convergence can be achieved. Experimental validation of the subband-based predistortion concept was successfully carried on a 100-W peak envelop power lateral double diffused metal-oxide semiconductor power amplifier. |
