Abstract

The present invention is directed to a linearization apparatus and method. Preferred embodiments according to the present invention can combine an auxiliary non-linear block (300) to a functional block of a system to increase linearity of an output signal (520) of the system such as a communication system. System overhead due to the non-linear auxiliary block can be small because of circuit structure, cost and low consumption. Further, the non-linear auxiliary block can be designed so that no feedback path is required. Further preferred embodiments can use a feedback path without loss of stability by using a cancellation apparatus or process based on an averaging detection of the output signal. For example, a feedback loop can detect power leakage in a sideband caused by non-linearities of the communication system.

Description

Background technique [0001] figure 1 The basic concept of operation of the signal processing module 10 within the communication system is illustrated. The signal processing module 10 converts the input signal through signal amplification, filtering and frequency conversion to generate the desired output signal. Therefore, in actual implementation, the signal processing module 10 may include any one of the mixer 12, the amplifier 16, and the filter 14, etc., or even a combination of two or more such function building modules. The basic requirement for a functional building block is to provide a high level of signal integrity, or no collateral damage to the desired signal. The most common impairment to the desired output signal is non-linearity caused by device non-linearities. [0002] The formula for equation (1) shows the effect of this non-ideality when nonlinearity is considered: [0003] Y(t)=a1*x(t)+a2*x 2 (t)+a3*x 3 (t) Equation (1) [0004] where x(t) is the inpu...
