Introduction:This paper focuses on improving the power amplifier linearity for wireless communications. The use of a single branch of a power amplifier can produce high distortion with low efficiency.Method:In this paper, the Linear Amplification with Nonlinear Components (LINC) technique is used to improve the linearity and efficiency of the power amplifier. The LINC technique is based on converting the envelope modulation signal into two constant envelope phase-modulated baseband signals. After amplification and combining the resulting signals, the required linear output signal is obtained. To validate the proposed approach, LINC technique is used for linearizing an amplifier based on a GaAs MESFET (described by an artificial neural network Model).Conclusion:Good results have been achieved, and an improvement of about 40.80 dBc and 47.50 dBc respectively is obtained for the Δlower C/I and Δupper C/I at 5.25 GHz.

Continuous Phase Modulation (CPM) schemes belong to a class of constant-envelope digital modulation schemes, the constant-envelope nature of the CPM signals makes them robust for the nonlinear and fading channels, and very useful for the satellite and/or the mobile radio channels. Comparing to PSK modulation, CPM modulation can not only provide spectral economy, but also exhibit a “coding gain”. CPM can be decomposed into a Continuous Phase Encoder (CPE) followed by a Memoryless Modulator (MM), this allows many new coded modulation schemes of combination of convolutional encoder and CPM modulator to be possible, such as serially-concatenated CPM (SC-CPM), SC-CPM with Convolutional Codes over Rings, pragmatic CPM (P-CPM), Concatenation of convolutional endocder and extended CE(CCEC), etc. Some simulations show that these new CPM schemes can offer superior performance.
