[Legacy Report] What's New in Digital Pre-Distortion
Abstract: This presentation will review linearization efforts in modern power amplifier design. The increasing use of linearization techniques, and especially the emergence of high speed digital processing as an enabling technology to implement digital pre-distortion (DPD) of the PA input signal, represent an important paradigm shift in PA design. The PA component can now be designed with more emphasis on power and efficiency, without the traditional constraints of meeting stringent linearity specs simultaneously. Understanding the utility of a linearizer to obtain optimum efficiency has thus become a new subject area in modern RF PA design. See Dr. Wood's Nov/Dec 2012 article "A Glimpse of the Future" in IEEE Microwave Magazine to see how this simulation fits in at the system level of RF and microwave design.
