Problems solved by technology

[0002] In a high-frequency power amplifier circuit, the operating point is usually set near the saturation point where the additional efficiency is high, so a lot of nonlinear distortion occurs
Due to such nonlinear distortion, 3rd, 5th, etc. inter-modulation occurs, and due to such inter-modulation, the degradation of the C / N ratio (Carrier to Noise ratio) in the frequency band occurs, resulting in BER (Bit ErrorRate , bit error rate) degrades such problems
In addition, the band-limited input signal spreads out of the band due to 3rd and 5th cross-modulation, causing the problem of causing interference to adjacent channels.
In addition, there is a problem that the BER of the phase modulated signal deteriorates due to phase noise caused by AM-PM conversion

Abstract

To provide a distortion compensation circuit capable of performing highly-accurate nonlinear distortion compensation even for an ultra-high frequency and a wide band. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] A distortion generation circuit for generating distortion component data for compensating nonlinear distortion of a high-frequency amplifier includes a memory matrix (51), a level comparator (52), and a D/A converter (53). The memory matrix (51) stores distortion component data expressed by an even-number degree multinomial corresponding to an envelope level value for each row in the horizontal direction. The level comparator (52) compares the envelope level to a plurality of reference voltages and generates a row selection signal for selecting one of the rows in the memory matrix (51) according to the comparison result. The D/A converter (53) converts the distortion component data expressed by the even-number degree multinomial which has been read out, into an analog signal. This enables output of a waveform of the distortion component almost in real time, thereby performing a highly-accurate nonlinear distortion compensation even for an ultra-high frequency and a wide band.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a distortion compensating circuit suitable for compensating nonlinear distortion generated by a high frequency power amplifier. Background technique [0002] In a high-frequency power amplifier circuit, usually, the operating point is set near the saturation point where the additional efficiency is high, so a lot of nonlinear distortion occurs. Due to such nonlinear distortion, 3rd, 5th, etc. inter-modulation occurs, and due to such inter-modulation, the degradation of the C / N ratio (Carrier to Noise ratio) in the frequency band occurs, resulting in BER (Bit ErrorRate , bit error rate) degradation of such problems. In addition, the band-limited input signal is spread out of the band by 3rd and 5th interleaving modulation, causing a problem of causing interference to adjacent channels. In addition, there is a problem that the BER of the phase modulation signal deteriorates due to phase noise caused by AM-PM conversion....
