Abstract
A digital predistortion (DPD) architecture is proposed with the dynamic range of the feedback channel being reduced. In this architecture, an extra radio frequency (RF) chain is deployed to cancel the linear components of the power amplifier (PA) output signal to reduce the dynamic range requirement on the analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) of the feedback channel. Subsequently in digital domain, the original PA output signal is estimated from both the digital replica of the RF cancelling signal and the acquired residual signal after cancellation, which is utilised to extract the DPD coefficients. Experimental results validate the effectiveness and superior performances of the proposed architecture, particularly with the number of ADC bits being reduced.
