Abstract

Wavelet packet division multiplexing (WPDM) is a high-capacity, flexible and robust orthogonal multiplexing scheme in which the message signals are waveform-coded onto wavelet packet basis functions for transmission. However, WPDM suffers from severe performance degradation in the presence of high-power amplifier (HPA) nonlinearities. Data predistortion using the pth-order Volterra inverse is proposed to combat the amplifier nonlinearities in a WPDM system. A 5th-order Volterra inverse with truncated memory length is designed based on the Volterra series channel model. Computer simulations are presented to demonstrate the capability of the proposed technique in compensating amplifier nonlinearities even under system parameter discrepancies. Guidelines are also proposed for designing a wavelet filter which leads to better predistortion with the truncated Volterra inverse.
