摘要:
Conventional distortion compensation circuits have addressed the problem that their distortion compensation amount is greatly reduced at levels other than the designed power level. The present invention provides a distortion compensation circuit that comprises: a vector adjuster; a linearizer; a linear signal extraction path for extracting part of an input signal from the input side of the vector adjuster; a nonlinear signal extraction path for extracting part of an output signal from the output side of the amplifier; a level detector for detecting a combined power level of the signals from the linear signal extraction path and the nonlinear signal extraction path; and a control circuit for adjusting a bias of the linearizer in accordance with the detected combined power level, electrically adjusting the linearizer so that the power detected by the level detector is minimized, and adjusting the vector adjuster so that the power detected by the level detector is minimized every time the linearizer is adjusted. As a result, the distortion compensation circuit of the present invention can optimize distortion compensation at all times independently of the average power changes of the input signal, the secular changes of the amplifier and the state changes of the amplifier caused by temperature changes.

A feedforward amplifier combines an input signal delayed by a delay circuit with an output signal by a combiner; down-converts the output of the combiner to a low frequency by a frequency converter; extracts a distortion component from the output of the frequency converter; measures the distortion component by a power detector; and controls a second vector regulator of a distortion canceling loop by a controller such that the distortion component measured becomes minimum.

A feedforward amplifier which includes a distortion detector, a distortion eliminator, an error power extractor, a first level detector and a first controller. The error power extractor extracts output error power due to variations in the distortion eliminator by combining the output signal from the distortion eliminator with the signal from a first linear signal path in the distortion detector in opposite phases. The first level detector detects the output error power extracted by the error power extractor, and the first controller controls a first variable attenuator and a first phase shifter which are interposed in the distortion eliminator such that the output error power is maintained at zero. This can solve a problem of a conventional feedforward amplifier in that the power level of the pilot signal must be increased to heighten the detection sensitivity of the pilot signal because the detection level of the pilot signal becomes minimum at an optimum operation point, and that the increasing power of the pilot signal degrades the communication quality of a system employing the conventional feedforward amplifier.
