  • Abstract
    A new behavioral modeling approach based on the piece wise linear (PWL) approximation of nonlinear functions is presented. The PWL model is obtained using threshold decomposition of the input-output characteristics. The PWL model is proved to provide a better modeling stability and modeling error performance than conventional polynomial models specially in the design of digital predistorters.
