Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This invention includes a waveform analyzing means ( 13 ) for calculating an estimated value of a back-off value required by a power amplifier ( 2 ), which amplifies a high-frequency signal generated from a baseband signal (I, Q) to a predetermined transmission power, by analyzing the waveform of the baseband signal (I, Q), and a control means ( 14 ) for controlling at least one of the amplitude of high-frequency power input to the power amplifier ( 2 ) and the supply power of the power amplifier ( 2 ) on the basis of the estimated value. The invention calculates the estimated value of a back-off value by analyzing the waveform of a baseband in this manner, and hence need not generate a table in advance by calculating a back-off value for each combination of code channels. The invention can therefore be applied to even a case in which the number of code channels greatly increases, and can effectively prevent an increase in adjacent channel leakage power due to a signal obtained by multiplexing these code channels.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A distortion control device comprising: a variable gain amplifier which amplifies a high-frequency signal generated from a baseband signal that is output from a digital baseband unit according to a control signal and outputs the amplified signal to a power amplifier which amplifies the amplified signal output from the variable gain amplifier to a predetermined transmission power; a waveform analyzing unit which calculates an estimated value of a back…
