摘要:
A distortion compensator that compensates for distortion arising in a main amplifier 10 that amplifies a signal effectively compensates for third order distortion which is unbalanced between the higher frequency band and lower frequency band. An amplitude detector 3 detects the level of a signal subject to amplification and a signal level change direction detection means 7 detects the direction of change in the level of the signal. A signal level change control means 4-8 stores the correspondence between the signal level and the mode of changing the signal in order to compensate for distortion for when the direction of change in the signal level is positive and when it is negative, and controls a signal change means 9 so that the amplitude and phase of the signal is changed in a mode of changing the signal corresponding to the detected direction of change in the signal level and the detected signal level. A signal change control content updating means 11-13 updates the content of this correspondence so that the distortion contained in the signal after amplification is reduced.

A peak limiter for use in a system for amplifying a multi-carrier signal receives a baseband signal of each carrier of the multi-carrier signal. The multi-carrier signal is computationally estimated to have carriers combined in an RF band, and obtains power information of the multi-carrier signal to limit an amplitude of the baseband signal based on the power information of the estimated multi-carrier signal to thereby provide peak-limited baseband signals. Thus, the distortion generated by performing the unnecessary peak limitation can be effectively prevented to thereby improve the reliability of the entire system.

A distortion compensator for compensating for distortion produced in an amplifier that amplifies a signal includes a signal level detector for detecting a level of a signal to be amplified and a distortion compensator for conducting distortion compensation based on the detection result separately for each frequency band signal of multiple frequency band signals contained in the signal to be amplified. The distortion compensator improves distortion compensation performance by reducing the effect of frequency characteristics that restrict the distortion compensation performance limit.
摘要:
A distortion compensation circuit reduces an unbalance between higher and lower 3rd order distortions, the distortions being generated by an amplifier which amplifies an input signal having at least two frequency components. Amplitude modulation means, which includes an amplitude detector, an amplitude circuit, a phase circuit and another amplitude circuit, generates sideband signals corresponding to an instantaneous phase difference between the higher and lower 3rd order distortions, such that distortions generated by the amplifier can be cancelled. Further, sideband signal generating means, which includes an amplitude circuit, a delay circuit, an AM modulator, another amplitude circuit, another delay circuit and a PM modulator, performs AM and PM on the input signal to thereby generate sideband signals, such that distortions generated by the amplifier can be cancelled.

There is provided a distortion canceling circuit for reducing an unbalance between a higher and a lower 3rd order distortion at frequencies of (2·f2−f1) and (2·f1−f2), respectively, the distortions being generated by an amplifier which amplifies an input signal having at least two frequency components, i.e., f1 and f2. Phase modulation control means supply a control signal, which has a difference frequency of (f2−f1), to phase modulation means, the control signal being generated based on the amplified input signal outputted from the amplifier. The phase modulation means performs phase modulation on the amplified input signal based on the supplied control signal to thereby generate a higher and a lower side-band signal having frequencies of (2·f2−f1) and (2·f1−f2), respectively, each of which has an identical amplitude and a phase difference of 180° with respect to each other. The distortion canceling circuit reduces the unbalance by using the side-band signals.
