Abstract
A circuit for use with an amplification circuit having a predistortion datapath portion, a power amplifier portion and a gain portion. The predistortion datapath portion can output a predistorted signal based on the input signal. The power amplifier portion can output an amplified signal based on the predistorted signal. The gain portion can output a gain output signal based on the amplified signal. The circuit comprises a digital predistortion adaptation portion and a combiner. The digital predistortion adaptation portion can output a predistortion adaptation portion output signal. The combiner can output an error signal. The predistortion adaptation portion output signal is based on the input signal, the gain output signal and the error signal. The error signal is based on the difference between the predistorted signal and the predistortion adaptation portion output signal.
