(ISSN: 0895-2477; DOI 10.1002/mop)0895-2477DOI: 10.1002/mop.29281http://hdl.handle.net/11117/4486This work presents a digital predistortion (DPD) scheme to linearize power amplifiers (PAs) using a recurrent neural network called Nonlinear AutoRegressive with eXogenous input model (NARX) neural network (NARXNN). The architecture of the NARXNN is based on a class of discrete-time nonlinear system named NARX. Its topology has embedded memory at the input and output of the neural architecture, which allows an efficient linearization of PAs. To show the benefits of the DPD with NARXNN, a commercial PA is fed with a long term evolution signal at 2.0 GHz with 10 MHz of bandwidth. Our experimental results show an adjacent channel leakage ratio improvement of 24 dB.engPower AmplifierLinearizationLong-Term Memory EffectsRecurrent Neural NerworkNARXDigital PredistorsionApplication of the NARX neural network as a digital predistortion technique for linearizing microwave power amplifiersinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article
