    Abstract: Various communication devices may benefit from the appropriate use of modeling techniques. For example, devices that include components that may be driven into non-linear ranges of operation may benefit from low complexity non-linear modelling techniques. Such devices may be used, for example, in wireless communication systems. A method can include obtaining a sample of a signal representative of power consumed by a device while the device is operating in a non-linear range while being driven according to a driving signal. The method can also include computing a correction to the driving signal based on the sample. The correction can be calculated based on a plurality of non-overlapped non-linear sections corresponding to a response of the device. The method can further include applying the correction to adjust the driving signal. The correction can be configured to adjust the power to a desired value of power.

    Abstract: At a current time, a current intermodulation content of a predistortion system is determined. An intermodulation ratio is determined using the current intermodulation content and a previous intermodulation content for the predistortion system. The previous intermodulation content is determined at a time previous to the current time. The determined intermodulation ratio is compared with stored intermodulation ratios. A warning is communicated in response to the comparing indicating the predistortion system is unhealthy. Apparatus and computer program products are also disclosed.

    Abstract: Enhancing the intermodulation performance of an RF power amplifier by determining a coarse time delay represented by an integer T1; determining a reference point for a transmitted signal waveform of the RF power amplifier; shifting the waveform by a set of offsets comprising a plurality of non-integer fractional steps from (T1−Xd) to (T1+Xd) where T1 is the integer and Xd is a non-integer fractional step size value for defining fractional steps about the integer T1 such that the non-integer fractional steps progress in a positive direction as well as a negative direction; correlating the transmitted signal waveform with a feedback signal waveform to obtain a respective correlation value for each of corresponding fractional steps; obtaining an accurate fractional delay value by selecting a fractional step having a highest respective correlation value; applying the obtained correct fractional delay value to the transmitted signal waveform to provide a compensated transmitted signal waveform, and combining the compensated transmitted signal waveform with the feedback signal waveform to reduce at least one intermodulation product of the RF power amplifier.
