Abstract :
Distortion correcting tables generated by a calibrating sequence are effectively used as a postprocessing method to equalize the nonlinear response of a parametric multicaster. The proposed linearization method is implemented in a broadband parametric multicaster and a 25 dB improvement in total harmonic distortion of 55 signal copies is demonstrated experimentally.
