This paper presents a method for achieving high-efficiency linear transmitters by codesign of the RF power amplifier (PA), dynamic supply, and signal processing. For varying amplitude signals, the average efficiency of the PA is improved by adding a supply modulator with requirements derived from nonstandard PA modeling. The efficient PA and supply modulator both introduce signal distortion. A targeted...
This paper describes the design of a class E power amplifier (PA) destined to be used as the final stage of a polar transmitter under IEEE 802.16e Mobile WiMAX signal excitation. Based on a 60 W GaN HEMT device, the load condition for optimum efficiency is set close to the maximum value of the power generating function, as defined in, for an OFDMA modulating signal. The possible impact of such average-based...
In this paper, we discuss the available transmitter architectures in a Software Defined Radio (SDR) context and present a suitable polar architecture implementation under three different modulation formats (TETRA, EDGE and CDMA2000FW). Then, we show how its recognized nonlinear impairments can be overcome using appropriate digital amplitude and phase pre-distortion algorithms.
