Disclosed are systems, devices, modules, methods, and other implementations, including a method for digital predistortion that includes receiving, by a digital predistorter, a first signal that depends on amplitude variations based on an input signal, u, with the variations of the first signal corresponding to time variations in non-linear characteristics of a transmit chain that includes a power amplifier. The method further includes receiving, by the digital predistorter, the input signal u, generating, by the digital predistorter, based at least in part on signals comprising the input signal u and the first signal, a digitally predistorted signal v to mitigate the non-linear behavior of the transmit chain, and providing the predistorted signal v to the transmit chain.

Linearization with level tracking

Disclosed are methods, systems, devices, apparatus, media, and other implementations, including a method for digital predistortion for a power amplifier system. The method includes determining one or more system characteristics for the power amplifier system comprising at least a power amplifier that produces output with non-linear distortions, with the one or more system characteristics corresponding to an estimate for a complex load metric for the power amplifier system coupled to a load. The method further includes determining, based on the one or more system characteristics corresponding to the estimate for the complex load metric, digital predistortion (DPD) coefficients to compensate for the nonlinear behavior of the power amplifier system.
