Abstract
An amplifying apparatus includes a first amplifier that amplifies an input signal on the basis of a value of a drain voltage and outputs a transmission signal, a distortion compensator that corrects a power amplitude of the input signal on the basis of a difference in power amplitude between the input signal and the transmission signal outputted from the first amplifier, a drain voltage controller that generates the drain voltage on the basis of the power amplitude of the input signal to be corrected, and a drain voltage corrector that corrects the drain voltage on the basis of the difference.
Claims3
An amplifying apparatus comprising:
- a first amplifier that amplifies an input signal based on a value of a drain voltage and outputs a transmission signal;
- a distortion compensator that corrects a power amplitude of the input signal based on a difference in power amplitude between the input signal and the transmission signal outputted from the first amplifier;
- a drain voltage controller that generates the drain voltage based on the power amplitude of the input signal to be corrected;
- and
- a drain voltage corrector that corrects the drain voltage based on the difference,
- wherein the drain voltage corrector includes:
- an address generator that outputs a power amplitude value of the input signal,
- a calculator that calculates a correction coefficient for correcting the drain voltage based on the difference,
- a correction control signal generator that stores the correction coefficient calculated by the calculator in association with the power amplitude value corresponding to the difference obtained at the time of calculation, and outputs the correction coefficient in accordance with the power amplitude value outputted from the address generator, and
- a second amplifier that amplifies the correction coefficient outputted from the correction control signal generator and generates a correction value for correcting the drain voltage.
