Abstract(in English) M-QAM modulation has been considered to achieve high bandwidth efficiency for wireless communications. However, due to its envelope fluctuation, it exhibits large spectral regrowth when power amplifier (PA) operates in nonlinear region close to saturation, in this study, an adaptive predistorter (PD) algorithm, based on look-up table (LUT), is introduced to linearize PA. The algorithm is implemented for a measured Class AB HPA. Adjacent Channel Power Ratio (ACPR) is used as a criterion to evaluate the PD performance. Output spectrum with and without PD are compared for 16-QAM input signal. A nearly 20dB improvement in ACPR is obtained by using PD.
