    Abstract: An example apparatus includes: programmable circuitry to receive an input signal, a digital pre-distorter (DPD) output signal, and a power amplifier (PA) feedback signal; populate a partial matrix with a threshold number of rows of equation terms; compute a respective observation terms for each row in the threshold number of rows; reduce the partial matrix into a Hermitian matrix and reduce the observation terms into a vector; accumulate the Hermitian matrix and the vector onto the memory; regularize, after a determination that a threshold number of Hermitian matrices have been accumulated, the memory to form an output matrix; and pre-distort the input signal using the output matrix.

    Abstract: An example apparatus includes: memory having a terminal, the memory to store machine-readable instructions and adjacent channel leakage data; and programmable circuitry having a terminal coupled to the terminal of the memory, the programmable circuitry to execute the machine-readable instructions to: determine a range of out-of-band frequencies responsive to adjacent channel leakage ratio data; generate weight values responsive to electromagnetic emissions within the range of out-of-band frequencies of a first signal; modify a pre-distortion function responsive to the weight values; and apply the modified pre-distortion function to generate a second signal, the second signal to exhibit fewer emissions in the range of out-of-band frequencies than the first signal during transmission.

    Abstract: In described examples, an integrated circuit includes an output terminal coupled to an input of a power amplifier, a feedback terminal coupled to an output of the power amplifier, a data terminal that receives a data stream, and a digital pre-distortion (DPD) circuit. The DPD circuit includes a capture circuit, a DPD estimator responsive to the data stream and the feedback terminal, and a DPD corrector responsive to the DPD estimator. The DPD estimator includes an instruction memory configured to store instructions and a vector arithmetic processing unit (APU) coupled to the instruction memory. The vector APU includes vector memories, vector arithmetic blocks, and an instruction decode block. The vector arithmetic blocks include vector addition blocks and vector multiplication blocks. The instruction decode block is configured to cause the vector APU to perform complex domain vector arithmetic on vectors stored in the vector memories in response to the instructions.
