Abstract
Aspects described herein include devices and methods for facilitating digital predistortion calibration. One aspect includes selecting a first transmission element from a plurality of transmission elements associated with a first antenna element of a plurality of antenna elements in an antenna array of the millimeter wave communication device, wherein the first transmission element is selected based on a gain setting for the first transmission element, selecting a reference transmission power for a test transmission from the first transmission element as part of a path searching operation of the millimeter wave communication device, determining a selected receive element of the plurality of receive elements based on a near field power measurement of the reference transmission power from the first transmission element using the selected receive element and a set of selection criteria, and setting a digital predistortion calibration setting using the reference transmission power and the near field power measurement.
