A treatment of distortion in RF power amplifiers. It seeks to offer guidance on designing easily linearizable systems that have low memory effects. The reader is offered a detailed understanding of how the matching impedances of a power amplifier and other RF circuits can be tuned to minimize overall distortion. It also demonstrates how to build models that can be used for distortion simulations. The measurement methodology should enable the reader to gauge the amplitude and phase of distortion components and recognize memory effects. The volume explains that by killing memory effects, it is possible to use simple linearizers, such as analogue predistortion, and still achieve sufficient performance. It presents a distortion analysis technique that allows you to repeat the analysis with other amplifier structures. With over 120 equations and more than 110 illustrations, this practical reference seeks to provide the assistance necessary to create amplifiers suitable for linear transmitters, and offers views of semiconductor modelling. |

Introduction to Probability and Statistics
Every time you pick up a newspaper or a magazine, watch TV, or surf the Internet, you
encounter statistics. Every time you fill out a questionnaire, register at an online website,
or pass your grocery rewards card through an electronic scanner, your personal
information becomes part of a database containing your personal... | | Advanced Engineering Mathematics
This book has helped to pave the way for the present development of engineering mathematics. By a modem approach to those areas A-G, this new edition will prepare the student for the tasks of the present and of the future. The latter can be predicted to some extent by a judicious look at the present trend. Among other features, this trend... | | Progress in Artificial Intelligence: 13th Portuguese Conference on Artificial Intelligence, EPIA 2007, Workshops: GAIW, AIASTS, ALEA, AMITA, BAOSW
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th Portuguese Conference on Artificial Intelligence, EPIA 2007, held in Guimarães, Portugal, in December 2007 as eleven integrated workshops. The 58 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 210 submissions. In accordance with the eleven... |
