Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a radio frequency power amplifier linearization technology in the field of communication technology, and is particularly suitable for a pilot-based self-adaptive feedforward linear power amplifier device and a control method in the field of broadband multi-carrier digital mobile communication. Background technique [0002] With the rapid and continuous growth of wireless communication service requirements and the increasingly tight wireless spectrum resources, it is objectively required for wireless communication systems to transmit more information in a limited frequency band. In order to make full and effective use of spectrum resources, wireless communication systems tend to adopt linear modulation methods and multi-carrier technologies with high data transmission rate and spectrum utilization. The radio frequency signal envelope fluctuations generated by these methods and technologies are particularly large, and the peak-to...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Due to the inherent nonlinear characteristics of RF power amplifiers, amplifying non-constant-amplitude envelope signals will produce distortion, and severe compression will occur on peak signals, which will cause the spectrum of the input signal to spread, resulting in EVM (vector modulation error) and BER ( The deterioration of the bit error rate) will also interfere with the communication quality of adjac...
