Abstract

A predistortion linearizer may include a digital signal processor (DSP) for modeling a nonlinear characteristic of a high power amplifier (HPA) on a real time basis; a distortion signal generator for generating a distortion signal by using the signal modeled by the DSP; and a main path unit for combining the output signal of the HPA and the distortion signal of the distortion signal generator and transmitting an input signal without a distortion component. Since the nonlinear characteristic of the power amplifier is modeled on a real time basis to remove the distortion component contained in the output signal of the power amplifier, the nonlinear characteristic of the power amplifier is improved, and thus, an efficiency of the power amplifier can be maximized.
