摘要:
An apparatus for processing base band signals and method thereof to provide low level signals for amplification that will improve performance of a multi-channel transmitter. The apparatus includes a first Transform Matrix (TM) coupled to one or more input signals; a processing unit coupled to the output signals for modifying according to a predetermined algorithm each of the output signals to provide modified output signals; a second TM coupled to the modified output signals for decomposing the modified signals, each of the output base band signals corresponding to one of the input signals; and a compensation function arranged and inter-coupled to either the modified output signals or the output base band signals. The transmitter further converts the output base band signals to radio frequency signals. A sampler couples either the amplifier input signal or output signal back to the compensation function as a feedback signal.

A multi-channel digital transceiver (400) receives uplink radio frequency signals and converts these signals to digital intermediate frequency signals. Digital signal processing, including a digital converter module (426), is employed to select digital intermediate frequency signals received at a plurality of antennas (412) and to convert these signals to baseband signals. The baseband signals are processed to recover a communication channel therefrom. Downlink baseband signals are also processed and digital signal processing within the digital converter module (426) up converters and modulates the downlink baseband signals to digital intermediate frequency signals. The digital intermediate frequency signals are converted to analog radio frequency signals, amplified and radiated from transmit antennas (420).

In a digital preprocessing system for processing a digital signal for analog transmission, the digital signal is up-sampled to produce a digital up-sampled signal having signal components in a plurality of Nyquist bands including a first Nyquist band and a plurality of super-Nyquist bands at higher frequencies than the first Nyquist band, wherein the first Nyquist band includes a baseband signal component and a plurality of aliased signal components. Thereafter, one of the plurality of signal components in the first Nyquist band is selected from the digital up-sampled signal. Finally, the selected one of the plurality of signal components is output at a frequency that will cause a digital to analog converter to output an aliased signal component in a super-Nyquist band nearer an anticipated peak amplitude of a filtering characteristic of the digital to analog converter than an aliased signal component in the super-Nyquist band that would be output by the digital to analog converter processing the baseband signal component.

An apparatus and method of reducing a peak envelope power of a linear power amplifier (10) amplifying a plurality of channels is provided. The method includes the steps of measuring (104) the peak envelope power of the linear power amplifier, measuring a channel activity level (101) of each channel of the plurality of channels, and, when the peak envelope power exceeds a first threshold, changing (103, 106) at least one parameter of a channel of the plurality of channels having a channel activity level exceeding a second threshold to reduce the peak envelope power.

A postdistortion amplifier that produces a postdistortion amplifier output signal based on a signal input to the postdistortion amplifier reduces distortion in the postdistortion amplifier output signal by digitally predistorting an error signal. The postdistortion amplifier includes a digital predistortion unit that receives a digital error signal and produces a digital predistorted error signal based on the received digital error signal and by reference to a predistorted error signal model.

A split frequency band signal digitizer (10) includes a first mixer (18) for translating a split-band signal (200) about a multiple of the sampling frequency. The split-band signal so translated is then communicated to an analog-to-digital converter (26). The digitized signal is then analyzed to recover an original portion of the split-band signal and a second portion of the signal aliased into a single Nyquist band.
