Abstract
A pre-compensation method for a pre-compensation circuit coupled to a power amplifier to compensate for nonlinearity of the power amplifier includes performing pre-distortion according to at least one parameter or at least one hyperparameter to convert a first input signal received by the pre-compensation circuit into a first pre-distortion output signal, updating the at least one parameter or the at least one hyperparameter according to Bayesian Optimization, Causal Bayesian Optimization, or Dynamic Causal Bayesian Optimization, and performing pre-distortion according to the at least one parameter updated or the at least one hyperparameter updated to convert a second input signal received by the pre-compensation circuit into a second pre-distortion output signal.
