Abstract
A distortion compensation circuit with frequency detection may be used with one or more non-linear elements, such as a laser, to compensate for frequency-dependent distortion generated by the non-linear element(s), for example, in broadband multichannel RF applications. Embodiments of the distortion compensation circuit may include a frequency detector circuit that detects changes in frequency loading conditions in the distortion compensation circuit such that distortion compensation may be adjusted to compensate for distortion under different frequency loading conditions. In a multichannel RF system with multiple channel operation modes, for example, the frequency detector circuit may detect changes in the frequency loading condition as a result of changing operation modes.
