Abstract :
This paper investigates the ability of nonlinear models extracted from measured continuous wave (CW) amplifier data, to predict the amplifier response to modulated signals in compression. Experimental verification of the nonlinear model prediction is hereby performed using nonlinear vectorial network analyser (NVNA) measurements.
