This paper proposes a new predistortion linearizer with controlling intermodulation distortion(IMD) signals. This linearizer achieves independent control of third- and fifth-order intermodulation distortion products using amplitude modulation with even harmonic signals. A vector modulator that modulate fundamental signal with both second- and fourth-order harmonic components generated by harmonic generator circuits, generates the inverse characteristics third-and fifth-order intermodulation signals of power amplifier and controls amplitude and phase of them with each other modulation factors. As a results, this linearizer is suppressed IMD signals of power amplifier effectively. The test results show that the third IMD is cancelled more than 25 dB and the fifth order IMD is cancelled about 18 dB for CW two-tone signals. Also, it's improved the adjacent channel power ratio(ACPR) more than 7 dB for IS-95 CDMA signals.

This paper proposes a new predistortion linearizer with amplitude modulator and PFG(Polar Function Generator) using second order harmonic signals. This linearizer consists of PFG that combine with in-phase and quadrature-phase of second harmonic signals and amplitude modulator in main path. The predistorted third order intermodulation distortion(IMD3) signals that are generated by amplitude modulator with fundamental and PFG signals, improve a amplifier nonlinear characteristics. The proposed linearizer and amplifier have been manufactured and tested to operate in cellular base-station transmitting band$(869\sim894MHz)$. The test results show that IMD3 can be removed by more than 22.5 dB in case of CW 2-tone signals ${\Delta}f=1$ MHz, and the adjacent channel power ratio(ACPR) also can be improved by more than 8.4 dB for CDMA IS-95 1FA signals.

본 논문에서는 IMT-2000용 고전력 중폭기에 사용할수 있근 전치 왜곡기를 feedback 방식을 이용하여 설계하였다. 여기서 feedback 방식을 사용함으로써 기존의 전치 왜곡기와는 달리 증폭기의 이득을 조절하기 위해 감쇄기를 사용하지 않고 feedback에 사용한 저항값을 사용하여 이득을 조절하도록 설계하였다.

In this paper, a new predistorter controlling modified individual order jntermodulation distortion signals is proposed. The proposed predistorter generates and controls predistorted third and high order IM signals independently. Using predistorted signals, jntermodulation distortion signals of power amplifier are suppressed effectively. The predistortion linearizer has been implemented to operate in Korean PCS basestation transmitting band (1840～1870MHz). The test results show that IMD3 and IMD5 (C/I) of power amplifier are improved more than 40dB and 23dB for CW two tone signals, respectively. The predistorter improves the adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR) more than 10dB at 885KHz offset point for CDMA (IS-95) signals.

In this paper, a new linearization algorithm for DPD(Digital PreDistorter) is suggested. This new algorithm uses DFP(Davidon-Fletcher-Powell) method. This algorithm is more accurate than that of the existing algorithms, and this method renew the best-fit value in every routine with out setting the initial value of step-size. In modeling power amplifier, the memory polynomial model which can model the memory effect of the power amplifier is used. And the overall structure of linearizer is based on an indirect learning architecture. In order to verify for performance of proposed algorithm, we compared with LMS(Least Mean-Squares), RLS(Recursive Least squares) algorithm.

In this paper, I compared some characteristics between HPA and LPA using Feedforward method. Feedforward method is known for best IMD correction. HPA generated 46.5㏈c at 45.5㏈m output power. But, using feedforward linearing method, I could improve IMD to 67.17㏈c at the same output power. IMD could be improved 20.67㏈ at 45.5㏈m output power. I measured average power, IMD, total current, and efficiency of two amplifier at many different power levels. I could get about 70d3c IMD using feedforward method.

본 논문에서는 feedforward 선형 증폭기에서의 지연 불일치에 의한 효과를 최소화하기 위한 등화기의 차수 결정에 관하여 수학적 접근과 모의실험을 하였다. 현재 feedforward 선형 증폭기에서 주로 사용하는 vector modulator는 지연 불일치에 확실한 개선을 이루지 못하고 있다. 이것을 극복하고자 vector modulator를 등화기로 대체하고 증폭기와 시지연선의 최대시간불일치와 sampling frequency와의 관계로 등화기의 차수를 결정하여 지연 불일치에 의한 오류 제거능력을 향상시켰다.

전력 증폭기의 3차나 5차 비선형성은 인접 통신 채널에 직접적인 영향을 미치므로 선형화 기법을 이용하여 출력단의 혼변조 신호를 감쇄시켜야 한다. 본 논문에서는 전력 증폭기의 입력 신호를 기저대역에서 왜곡시켜 전력 증폭기를 선형화 시키는 디지털 사전 왜곡기를 구현하였다. 측정에 앞서, 모의실험을 통하여 시스템 변수에 따른 선형화기의 성능을 예측하고, 1차원 참조표(look-up table)를 사용한 사전 왜곡기의 측정 결과, 약 9 dB의 ACPR 개선 효과를 얻을 수 있었다.

To apply the queueing network theory in evaluating performances of flexible manufacturing systems, it is generally assumed that the processing times are distributed exponentially. However, in FMS, processing times are usually deterministic. In this study the performance measures of FMS are approximated under the assumption that processing times are usually deterministic. Multi-classes of parts and single server and multi-server stations are considered in the model. This study also that, in the numerical example, this approach yields better solutions than those obtained by the pure Linearizer algorithm, when the processing times are deterministic.
