A predistortion system adaptively compensates for distortion introduced along one or more amplification chains of a power amplifier system. In one embodiment, the predistortion system includes a plurality of compensation circuits, each of which is coupled to, and configured to digitally predistort an input transmission signal to, a respective amplification chain of an antenna array system. Each such amplification chain has an output coupled to a respective antenna of the antenna array system. A processing unit monitors the input transmission signals to, and corresponding output signals from, each of the amplification chains on a time-shared basis, and generates updates to the compensation parameters used the corresponding compensation circuits.
A transmission antenna array system comprising:
In a transmission antenna array system comprising a plurality of amplification chains, a method of predistorting input transmission signals to the amplification chains, comprising;
