7 results about "Linearizer" patented technology

Linearizers are electronic circuits which improve the non-linear behaviour of amplifiers to increase efficiency and maximum output power. Creating circuits with the inverted behaviour to the amplifier is one way to implement this concept. These circuits counteract the non-linearities of the amplifier and minimize the distortion of the signal. This increases linear operating range up to the saturation (maximum output power) of the amplifier. Linearized amplifiers have a significantly higher efficiency with improved signal quality. There are different concepts to linearize an amplifier, including pre- and post-distortion and feedback linearization. Most commonly used is pre-distortion linearization.

amplification device

The present application provides an amplifier device which is downsized. The amplifier device includes: an RF signal input terminal to which an RF signal is input; a buffer circuit having an input terminal connected to the RF signal input terminal, the RF signal being input to the input terminal; a linearizer; a power amplifier; and a control circuit. The linearizer includes a transistor provided at an input of the linearizer and having a control terminal. The control circuit outputs a first gate voltage which causes the transistor to operate in class B to the control terminal when a level of the RF signal input to the RF signal input terminal is a first level, and outputs a second gate voltage which causes the transistor to operate in class AB to the control terminal when the level of the RF signal is a second level higher than the first level. An output impedance of the buffer circuit viewed from an input side of the linearizer is set such that a reflection loss of the RF signal input from the buffer circuit to the linearizer becomes equal to or less than a predetermined level.
