Abstract

In this paper we present power amplifier (PA) modeling and digital predistortion (DP) methods with memory effects using baseband Volterra series representation. A reduction of complex Volterra model coefficients was possible using their symmetry properties. Our simulation and measurement results show a good linearization performance applying very simple Volterra model structures. A further advantage of our approach is a simple offline DP model identification, without need to analytically or iteratively calculate a PA model inverse. The measurement results are presented using different digital modulated signals. DP with and without memory are compared. Finally we report an improvement of PA efficiency regarding a defined output signal spectral mask.
