Abstract :
A baseband predistorter is presented. Key features of the predistorter resides in the use of cubic splines interpolation to generate predistorted input data to the power amplifier, resulting in a reduction of computational effort with respect to traditional polynomial interpolators. Simulated behaviour of the proposed scheme is presented, demonstrating the effectiveness of the approach.
