Abstract(in English) Nonlinear distortions of amplifiers can bring serious degradations in communication. A practical linearization method to reduce the nonlinear distortion is pre-distorter [1,2]. It is necessary to have the knowledge in advance about the nonlinear performances of the amplifiers in communication links to perform the pre-distortion. For that purpose Saleh model is widely used. Saleh model, useful for applications, is a mere mathematical model hence gives only poor physical interpretations. Furthermore the exact knowledge about the nonlinear amplifiers is not always available in advance. The conventional pre-distorters cannot follow the changes of the nonlinear properties of the amplifiers in time either. In order to solve those problems the author invented a negative feedback linearizer for non-linear amplifiers based on a complex model a few years ago [3]. The negative feedback linearizer can not only cope with wide varieties of nonlinear properties of the amplifiers without the advance knowledge but also follow the changes in time. The author has recently applied the model to analysis of the non-linear amplifiers to get some interesting results with clear physical meaning and practical applications. The cause of nonlinearity is also studied and reported.
