Time-Domain Predistortion Method Based on Raised Cosine Signaling in Real Transmission Channels

الملخص EN

The concept of time-domain predistortion method based on raised cosine signaling is applied in real transmission channels.

The proposed PWM-RC method uses raised-cosine pulse shaping instead of conventional rectangular digital signals and pulse-width modulation (PWM) scheme to achieve better output channel data response in harsh channel environment.

The conventional predistortion methods based on pulse amplitude adjusting are not compatible with modern low-power CMOS design.

Currently existing time-domain predistortion methods which are only based on a PWM scheme show many highfrequency signal harmonic components for both fast and slow signal transitions.

It can cause more system crosstalk susceptibility if the crosstalk is dominant factor in transmission channel.

In this case, the additional preemphasis boosted undesirable high-frequency components.

Finally, the real channel transfer functions in connection with ADS Agilent development studio are used to compare the performance of proposed method with other predistortion methods.
