Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for providing a linear polar transmitter. The systems and methods may include generating an input amplitude signal and an input phase signal, where the input amplitude signal and the input phase signal are orthogonal components of an input signal, and where the input amplitude signal and the input phase signal are generated on respective first and second signal paths. The systems and methods may also include processing the input amplitude signal along the first signal path using an amplitude error signal to generate a predistorted amplitude signal, and processing the input phase signal along the second signal path using an phase error signal to generate a predistorted phase signal. The systems and methods may also include providing the predistorted amplitude signal along the first signal path and the predistorted phase signal along the second signal path to a power amplifier to generate an output signal, where the amplitude error signal is generated from a comparison of at least an amplitude portion of the output signal with the predistorted amplitude signal and where the phase error signal is generated from a comparison of at least a phase portion of the output signal with the predistorted phase signal.
