Abstract
A power amplifier capable of compensating for distortion by pre-distortion and achieving a large distortion suppressing effect even if IM3L components and IM3U components occurring at the power amplifier have a large level difference. A power amplifying circuitamplifies an original signal. An envelope detectorgenerates an envelope signal having components identical to envelope components included in the original signal. Based on the original signal a distortion signal generating circuitgenerates a distortion signal for canceling distortion components occurring while the original signal is amplified by the power amplifying circuit. In a power combiner, the envelope signal is injected to the original signal, thereby eliminating the asymmetric characteristic of the distortion components. In the power amplifying circuit, the distortion signal is injected to the original signal, thereby suppressing the distortion components.
