In accordance with at least one embodiment, a processor system is disclosed having a SIMD processor device that has a plurality of subsidiary processing elements that are controlled to process multiple data concurrently. In accordance with at least one embodiment, the SIMD processor is a vector processor (VPU) having a plurality of vector Arithmetic Units (AUs) as subsidiary processing elements, and the VPU executes an instruction to transfer table information from a global memory of the VPU to a plurality of local memories accessible by each AU. The VPU also executes an instruction that results in each processing element performing a table lookup from a table stored at its local memory. In response to the instruction, this table lookup uses a portion of a lookup value to access information from the table, and uses another portion of the lookup information to calculate an interpolated resultant based upon the accessed information.

A system for storing pre-distorted output samples in a memory includes a sample counter, a programming interface module, and a comparator. The sample counter counts the pre-distorted output samples, generates a dynamic count value, receives a capture counter status signal, and generates a first count value. The programming interface module receives and outputs the first count value, an offset value, and a capture control signal, and generates a first interrupt signal. The comparator receives the first count value, the offset value, the dynamic count value, and the capture control signal, generates a final value, compares the final value with the dynamic count value, and generates a trigger signal when the final value equals the dynamic count value based on the capture control signal. The trigger signal initiates the storing of the pre-distorted output samples in the memory.

A system for calibrating a power amplifier (PA) includes a memory, a processor, a digital pre-distorter (DPD), and a data converter. The DPD includes a programming interface module, a pattern generator, a multiplier, and a pre-distorter module. The multiplier multiplies reference baseband stream data from the memory with pattern coefficient data generated by the pattern generator to generate shaped reference baseband stream data. The pre-distorter module generates pre-distorted shaped reference baseband stream data. The PA receives a low-power reference radio frequency (RF) signal corresponding to the pre-distorted shaped reference baseband stream data and generates a high-power reference RF signal. The processor receives and compares the pre-distorted shaped reference baseband stream data with amplified shaped reference baseband stream data corresponding to the high-power reference RF signal, and adjusts pre-distortion parameters in the pre-distorter module based on the comparison such that the PA generates a linear high-power RF signal.

摘要:
A digital pre-distorter (DPD) for an RF transceiver system having multiple antennas includes a DPD controller, first and second address generators, stream select and antenna select muxes, first and second lookup tables (LUTs), first and second dynamic routing logic units, multipliers, an adder, and an accumulator. The DPD controller generates antenna select, stream select and stream routing signals indicative of selection of antennas, the first and second LUTs, and input signals. The DPD controller configures the DPD to share the multipliers and the first and second LUTs between multiple antennas by providing the antenna select signal to the antenna select mux, the stream select signal to the stream select mux, and the stream routing signals to the first and second dynamic routing logic units.
