Modeling of Long Term Memory Effects in RF Power Amplifiers with Dynamic Parameters

Paper i proceeding, 2012

This paper presents a new radio frequency power amplifier behavioral model that is capable of modeling long term memory effects. The proposed model is derived by assuming linear dependence of the parameters of a conventional model to a long term memory parameter, which enables the model to better track the signal-induced changes of the power amplifier electrical behavior. The model is experimentally tested and shows a 2-3 dB improvement compared to common behavioral models.
