An intermediate frequency predistortion linearizer for an earth station traveling-wave tube amplifier

In multicarrler single-channel-per-carrier (SCPC) communication system design, intermodulation distortion is often a limiting factor. The intermodulation distortion caused by the AM/AM and AM/PM conversion effect of the microwave transmit high power amplifier (HPA) can be reduced by applying lineari...
