High-Efficiency Envelope Tracking PAs for LTE-A Wireless Base Stations and Mobile
Track/Summit: RF and Wireless Test Summit
Session ID#: TS1549
Abstract: Envelope tracking (ET) provides the potential for achieving high efficiency in power amplifiers for next-generation wireless transmitters. Explore the development of various ET amplifiers and their requirements for applications in base station and handset PAs. Then discuss digital predistortion techniques to compensate for any system nonlinearity. Lastly, examine an implementation for a hardware-in-the-loop envelope tracking test bed using NI solutions.
