Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the cost of selecting ultra-linear devices that meet system performance requirements is too high and the technology is difficult; and the use of power back-off method will not only greatly reduce the utilization rate of the power supply, but also has complex structure, low linearity compensation, poor adjustability, large Large-scale integration is difficult, and at the same time, the power back-off method can only be effectively carried out in low-frequency and narrow-band signals, and it is difficult to exert the best effect in high-frequency and broadband environments

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of radio frequency technology, and in particular relates to a millimeter-wave predistortion integrated circuit based on a PIN diode and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of wireless communication technology, linear modulation technology is being used more and more widely. Modulation signals with varying envelopes will produce intermodulation components after passing through nonlinear RF power amplifiers, so linearization techniques must be used to reduce the resulting adjacent channel interference. [0003] Pre-distortion technology is a widely used linearization technology. The linearization system based on pre-distortion technology is gradually becoming a research hotspot. At present, the linearization methods based on pre-distortion technology mainly use super-linear devices and power back-off methods. Both the ultra-linear device required by the system perfor...
