Abstract

A system and method for calibrating digital pre-distortion in a wireless device. A pre-distortion circuit may output a first training signal while a power amplifier of the wireless device is on, to generate a first feedback signal. The first feedback signal may be fed back to the pre-distortion circuit via a receive path of the wireless device. The pre-distortion circuit may output a second training signal while the power amplifier is off, to generate a second feedback signal. The second feedback signal may be fed back to the pre-distortion circuit via the receive path. The pre-distortion circuit may then determine one or more pre-distortion coefficients based on the first and second feedback signals.
