Abstract
A power amplification apparatus and method for amplifying a baseband signal having a high peak-to-average power ratio (PAR) are provided. The power amplification apparatus and method comprise a signal generation section for generating a peak-reduced signal obtained by subtracting a peak value from the baseband signal and an error signal representing a difference between the baseband signal and the peak-reduced signal and for outputting the generated signals; a peak-reduced signal amplification section for amplifying the peak-reduced signal output from the signal generation section in a radio frequency band; an error correction amplification section for amplifying the error signal output from the signal generation section in the radio frequency band; and a summer for coupling and outputting the signal amplified by the peak-reduced signal amplification section and the signal amplified by the error correction amplification section.
