Abstract:
1. In a system that produces an initial signal and has at least one electronic component that adds a distortion error to said initial signal to create a distorted signal, a method of conditioning said initial signal to compensate for said distortion error, said method comprising the steps of: subtracting said distorted signal from said initial signal to obtain an initial negative distortion error; subtracting said initial negative distortion error from said initial signal to create an initial conditioned signal; subtracting said distorted signal from said initial conditioned signal to obtain a subsequent negative distortion error; providing a first subtraction circuit that receives both said initial signal and said initial negative distortion error, wherein said first subtraction circuit is comprised of an operational amplifier and resistors; subtracting said subsequent negative distortion error from said initial conditioned signal with said first subtraction circuit to create a subsequent conditioned signal; and supplying said subsequent conditioned signal to said at least one electronic component in place of said initial signal.
