Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. For example, a transmitting wireless device, such as a user equipment or a base station, may apply a first set of digital pre-distortion (DPD) coefficients to a plurality of antenna elements to form a first transmit beam. The wireless device may determine to switch from using the first transmit beam to using a second transmit beam that is different from the first transmit beam and may apply a second set of DPD coefficients to the plurality of antenna elements to form the second transmit beam, where the second set of DPD coefficients is different from the first set of DPD coefficients. The wireless device may transmit signaling using the second transmit beam based at least in part on applying the second set of DPD coefficients.

Beam dependent digital pre-distortion

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Some wireless communications systems may support adaptation of digital pre-distortion (DPD) coefficients based on a temperature of a user equipment (UE). The UE may determine a power offset value based on a first temperature value associated with a training procedure for the UE, a second temperature value associated with the UE, and a constant value. The training procedure may be associated with multiple sets of coefficients for the UE. The UE may apply the power offset value to a transmission power level for transmission of a message. The UE may determine a set of coefficients of the multiple sets of coefficients based on the training procedure and the power offset value applied to the transmission power level. The UE may apply the coefficients to a DPD engine of the UE to generate the message for transmission at the transmission power level.

Techniques for temperature adaptation for digital pre-distortion factory training

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. A wireless communication device may have an apparatus that aligns the non-linearity between transmit chains of the wireless communication device that are driven by the same digital port. The apparatus may adjust an amplification power out or an amplification saturated power to adjust a ratio between the amplification saturated power and the amplification power out for one or more transmit chains of the wireless communication device. The apparatus may adjust the ratios of transmit chains to align the ratios of the transmit chains for more consistent management of non-linear characteristics of the chain components. Numerous other aspects are described.
