Problems solved by technology

In the above-mentioned distortion compensation method using the conventional power series, there is a problem that unless the optimal distortion compensation coefficient is used immediately after the power fluctuation of the transmitted signal, the out-of-band radiation power temporarily increases
As a result, both the correction curves 1403 and 1404 deviate from the ideal correction curve 1402 before the coefficient update, so there is a problem that sufficient performance of distortion compensation may not be maintained

[0045] figure 1 is a configuration diagram of the first embodiment of the distortion compensation device.

[0046] The predistortion unit 101 performs a power series operation consisting of odd-order power terms, and is composed of a power calculation unit 101-1, a coefficient multiplier 101-2, and an accumulator 101-3. The predistortion unit 101 therefore performs distortion compensation of the transmit amplifier 105 .

[0047] The output of the pre-distortion unit 101 is converted into an analog signal by the D / A converter 102, and further quadrature modulated by the quadrature modulator 103 based on the signal oscillated by the local oscillator 104 according to the transmitting base station.

Abstract

A distortion compensation apparatus includes a distortion compensation unit that performs distortion compensation processing on a transmission signal by a series operation, a coefficient update unit that updates a group of series operation coefficients used for the series operation based on a feedback signal of transmission signal output that is output after power amplification processing is performed on output of the distortion compensation unit and the transmission signal, an initial coefficient memory that stores the groups of series operation coefficients that become initial values for coefficient update processing by the coefficient update unit, and a power fluctuation detection unit that detects a power fluctuation of the transmission, signal and, when the power fluctuation is detected, reads the groups of series operation coefficients from the initial coefficient memory and provides the groups of series operation coefficients to the coefficient update unit.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to a predistortion type distortion compensation technique for suppressing nonlinear distortion of a transmission amplifier output by performing distortion compensation processing on an input signal entering a transmission amplifier in advance in radio communication. Background technique [0002] Generally, high-efficiency transmit amplifiers used in radio transmission devices such as mobile base stations have strong nonlinear characteristics. Therefore, when transmitting a modulated signal for high-speed radio communication, this nonlinear distortion in the transmit amplifier results in out-of-band radiated power in the transmitted modulated signal, affecting adjacent transmit channels. [0003] As a method of suppressing out-of-band radiation by a transmission amplifier, there is known a predistortion method in which a distortion signal having a characteristic opposite to the nonlinear distortion characteris...
