Problems solved by technology

[0014] Judging from the current research results, the existing nonlinear device predistortion linearization technology achievements are only applicable to the same type of power amplifier linearization requirements, and the scope of application is relatively small
KazuhisaYamauchi et al. have studied a series-type transmission-type analog predistortion circuit ["Anovelseriesdiodelinearizerformobileradiopoweramplifiers", by Yamauchi, K.; Mori, K.; Nakayama, M.; Itoh, Y.; Mitsui, Y.; Ishida, O. MicrowaveSymposiumDigest, 1996, IEEEEMTT-SInternational, Volume: 2] and a parallel transmission type analog predistortion circuit ["Amicrowaveminiaturizedlinearizersingaparalleldiodewithabiasfeedresistance", Authors: Yamauchi, K.; Mori, Kazutomi; Nakayama, M.; Mitsui, Y.; Takagi, Tadashi, MicrowaveTheoryandTechniques, IEEETransactions onVolume:45] can only produce predistorted signals suitable for solid-state power amplifiers

[0050] In the working states of the above two embodiments, by adjusting V1, V2 (or R1, R2) respectively, as the input power increases, the amplitude and phase of the transmission coefficient can increase nonlinearly, which is contrary to the nonlinear characteristics of the traveling wave tube type. It can meet the pre-distortion requirements of millimeter-wave traveling wave tube power amplifiers.

Abstract

The invention discloses a hybrid pre-distortion linearizer with wide application range. The hybrid pre-distortion linearizer comprises a power divider and a synthesizer, wherein output ports of the power divider are in one-to-one connection with input ports of the synthesizer through a series transmission type analog pre-distortion circuit or a parallel transmission type analog pre-distortion circuit. The linearizer synthesizes multiple nonlinear signals with different characteristics to obtain the required spectrum and phase pre-distortion signals, overcomes the shortcomings that independent series and parallel transmission type analog pre-distortion circuits can only produce pre-distortion signals suitable for solid-state power amplifiers and most reflection-type pre-distortion circuits can only produce pre-distortion signals suitable for millimeter wave traveling-wave tube power amplifiers, can realize the nonlinear pre-distortion linearization for the millimeter wave traveling-wave tube power amplifiers and the solid-state power amplifiers, has wide application range, and is suitable for being popularized in the technical field of millimeter wave linearization.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of millimeter wave linearization, in particular to a hybrid predistortion linearizer. Background technique [0002] Modern wireless communication systems require larger signal capacity, higher signal transmission rate, and higher communication quality and efficiency, making millimeter wave communication systems with wider operating frequency bands and higher information capacity more and more attention. In millimeter wave communication systems, the key technical bottlenecks are the high cost of millimeter wave power acquisition and the low efficiency of millimeter wave power amplifiers. In a millimeter wave communication system, in order to achieve low cost and high efficiency, and to maximize the performance of the final power amplifier of the system, the final power amplifier is often required to work in a nonlinear state. This will inevitably require linearization of the final power amplifier to meet the...
