Alternatively, the predistortion function h(x) is approximated by a power-series expansion of the amplitude x, initial values are applied to the power-series expansion coefficients c1 to cn; and the coefficients c1 to cn are so determined as to substantially minimize the absolute value ε of the ratio of the secondary Fourier coefficients of the function g(h(x)) to the primary Fourier coefficients, wherein the amplitude x is defined as the amplitude of the intermodulated wave of base-band signals having angular frequencies ω1 and ω2.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
