    摘要: RF predistortion apparatus for making linear the output signal of non-linear components such as RF power amplifiers. The apparatus comprises an RF input line for carrying an RF signal connected to an envelope detector for finding the envelope of the RF signal, a power detector for finding the power of the RF signal and a quadrature modulator. The apparatus also comprises a coefficient vector input line for carrying an input signal that carries one or more coefficients to a digitally controlled analog subsystem (DCAS). The DCAS having circuitry for processing both the output of the envelope detector and the output of the power detector by selecting one or more coefficients from the coefficient vector input line for generating a weighted summation of the power of the RF signal and a weighted summation of the envelope voltage of the RF signal that are output to the quadrature modulator. The quadrature modulator has circuitry for mixing the RF input signal with the output of the DCAS to generate a signal for predistorting the RF input signal feeding the power amplifier.

    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for power measurement of signals such that the power measurement is insensitive to PVT variations of the measurement systems. A power measurement system includes an analog squarer circuitry, an integrating ADC, and a controller. The squarer circuitry calculates the power of a signal whose power is to be measured while the integrating ADC integrates the calculated power over a runup interval to generate an integrated power. The squarer circuitry also calculates the power of a reference for the integrating ADC to de-integrate the integrated power over a rundown interval. The power measurements are independent of PVT variations of the analog squarer circuitry and integrating ADC. The controller digitally controls the runup interval and measures the rundown interval to provide digitized power measurements. The analog squarer circuitry have replica squarer circuits. Process dependent mismatches between the replica analog circuitry may be removed through a calibration process.
