Abstract
Digital pre-distorter (DPD) coefficients can be used to compensate for non-linearity of a power amplifier (PA). A system can receive a defined waveform from transmit hardware. The system can transmit an output waveform with a defined modulation from the PA. The system can capture samples of the output waveform. The system can submit the samples to a processing system temporarily connected to a transmitter system. The system can compute a PA model using the defined waveform and the samples. The system can determine a plurality of Digital Pre-Distorter (DPD) coefficients for a plurality of power levels, frequencies, and temperatures based on the PA model. The system can store the plurality of DPD coefficients to a memory of the transmitter system. Additionally, the system can add predistortions using the plurality of DPD coefficients to a plurality of input waveforms to correct for impairments introduced by the PA.
