Abstract
A predistortion circuit receives an input polar signal to be transmitted, including an input amplitude signal and an input phase signal. The input polar signal is predistorted using at least one predistortion parameter selected from a lookup table. A phase-and-amplitude modulated radio-frequency signal is generated corresponding to the predistorted polar signal. A copy of the generated radio-frequency signal is provided to a polar receiver. The polar receiver is operated to generate, from the copy of the radio-frequency signal and without information relating to the generated transmit signal, a feedback polar signal including a feedback amplitude signal and a feedback phase signal. The feedback polar signal is compared to the input polar signal, the lookup table is updated in response to the comparison.
