Abstract :
Power amplifier nonlinearity compensation based on nonlinearity estimation at the receiver is a potential solution to decrease both the cost and the complexity of the transmitter in femtocell or relay. In this paper, we performed an end-to-end test with realistic multipath propagation effects emulated in an anechoic chamber.
