Digital Predistortion Parameter Identification for RF Power Amplifiers Using Real-Valued Output Data
Journal article, 2017

This brief presents a novel digital predistortion (DPD) parameter identification technique that requires only the acquisition of either the in-phase (I) or the quadrature (Q) component of the power amplifier (PA) output signal. To this end, an approach that allows us to estimate the parameters of a model using only one of the IQ components of the model output is presented. Based on experimental results, it is shown that the proposed real-valued measurements based technique can offer similar linearization capabilities as its complex-valued counterparts. The experimental results also indicate that the proposed technique can be used in combination with other techniques that focus on reducing the speed of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs)
