Feed-forward amplifier
Abstract:
There is provided a feed-forward amplifier which enables a predistortion circuit to obtain sufficient distortion compensation effects even if ambient temperature or the like changes. The feed-forward amplifier includes a variable attenuator for controlling the amount of attenuation of a signal input to a main amplifier, a variable attenuator for controlling the amount of attenuation to prevent deterioration of distortion compensation due to a change in the ambient temperature of the main amplifier, a variable attenuator for controlling the amount of attenuation of a signal input to an auxiliary amplifier, and a variable attenuator for controlling the amount of attenuation to prevent deterioration of distortion compensation due to a change in the ambient temperature of the auxiliary amplifier, wherein a control circuit controls the variable attenuators to reduce the amount of attenuation according to the reduced gain of the main amplifier and the reduced gain of the auxiliary amplifier, and a control circuit controls the variable attenuators to optimize the amount of attenuation according to the ambient temperature of the main amplifier and the ambient temperature of the auxiliary amplifier.
