POWER AMPLIFIER MODEL ESTIMATION FOR DIGITAL POST DISTORTION IN MULTI-ANTENNA DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17531499 titled 'POWER AMPLIFIER MODEL ESTIMATION FOR DIGITAL POST DISTORTION IN MULTI-ANTENNA DEVICES

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications. It focuses on optimizing power amplifier performance in a base station and improving communication with user equipment (UE). Here are the key points:

  • The base station maps transmitter antennas to multiple antenna groups based on the power amplifier response of the antennas.
  • It determines a power amplifier model for each antenna group based on the power amplifier response.
  • The base station then transmits an indication of the power amplifier model to the UE.
  • The UE uses this indication to determine the power amplifier model for its own transmitter antenna.
  • The UE communicates with the base station based on the power amplifier model for its transmitter antenna.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication networks, such as cellular networks, can benefit from improved power amplifier performance and optimized communication with UEs.
  • This technology can be applied to various wireless communication standards, including 4G, 5G, and beyond.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Power amplifier performance can vary among transmitter antennas, leading to suboptimal communication quality.
  • Without knowledge of the power amplifier model, UEs may not be able to adjust their communication parameters effectively.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Optimized power amplifier performance improves the overall quality and reliability of wireless communication.
  • UEs can adjust their communication strategies based on the power amplifier model, leading to better signal reception and transmission.
  • This technology enables efficient and effective communication between base stations and UEs, enhancing the overall performance of wireless networks.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. The methods include a base station mapping transmitter antennas to one of a set of multiple antenna groups based on a power amplifier response of one or more transmitter antennas, determining a power amplifier model for one or more antenna groups based on the power amplifier response of the one or more transmitter antennas, and transmitting an indication of the power amplifier model for one or more antenna groups to a UE. The methods include the UE determining a power amplifier model for a transmitter antenna of the set of transmitter antennas based on the indication of the power amplifier model and communicating with the base station based on the power amplifier model for the transmitter antenna.
