68 results about "Predistortion" patented technology

Predistortion is a technique used to improve the linearity of radio transmitter amplifiers. Radio transmitter amplifiers in most telecommunications systems are required to be "linear", in that they must accurately reproduce the signal present at their input. An amplifier that compresses its input or has a non-linear input/output relationship causes the output signal to splatter onto adjacent radio frequencies. This causes interference on other radio channels.
