<strong>Digital</strong> Predistorti<strong>on</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Power</strong> Amps<br />

The first figure shows that driving the power amplifier at 5dB back-<strong>of</strong>f generates high<br />
levels <strong>of</strong> intermodulati<strong>on</strong> power. The sec<strong>on</strong>d figure shows the resultant output from the<br />
digital baseband predistorter <strong>on</strong>ce the LUT entries have adapted. We can observe the<br />
spectral growth that occurs using a predistorter. The adjacent channel power is spread<br />
over a wider bandwidth but the mask requirements can be meet.
