Abstract

A method and system for digital pre-distortion of an input signal to compensate for non-linear operation of a power amplifier. According to one aspect, some embodiments provide overlapping spline functions that are defined for two adjacent bins, where any two spline functions overlap in only one bin. Each spline function is computed as a function of one of an input signal envelope and a delayed signal envelope. According to another aspect, a tap weight evaluator includes a least mean squares, LMS, tap correlator updater configured to modulate a step size of an adaptation process to update each tap weight, the step size being modulated based on an approximate logarithm of the average power of the input to a tap weight computation.
