This brief presents a behavioral model structure and a model-based phase-only predistortion method that are suitable for outphasing RF amplifiers. The predistortion method is based on a model of the… (More)
This paper presents a model-based phase-only predistortion method suitable for outphasing radio frequency (RF) power amplifiers (PA). The predistortion method is based on a model of the amplifier… (More)
This paper considers the problem of how to estimate a model of the inverse of a system. The use of inverse systems can be found in many applications, such as feedforward control and power amplifier… (More)
The interest for cell-to-cell variation has in recent years increased in a steady pace. Several studies have shown that a large portion of the observed variation in the nature originates from the… (More)
This paper considers the problem of wear estimation in a standard industrial robot joint. Motivated by the observation that the wear processes in a robot actuator cause an increase of the friction… (More)
The first loudspeaker was invented almost 150 years ago and even though much has changed regarding the manufacturing, the main idea is still the same. To produce clean sound, modern loudspeaker… (More)
A linearized digital radio frequency (RF) power amplifier (PA), a switched RF PA, is more power efficient than an analog amplifier, but may cause interference in adjacent transmitting channels… (More)
Loudspeakers were invented over 150 years ago, but the loudspeakers used today are still based on the same ideas. Traditionally, good sound quality has been obtained by using expensive materials in… (More)
In this thesis the telecommunication problem known as inter-cell interference is examined. Inter-cell interference originates from users in neighboring cells and affects the users in the own cell.… (More)
