Patent ID: 11316583

Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a high power amplifier (HPA) linearization method, applied to a ground hub which includes a predistorter and a PD controller. The ground hub is arranged in a satellite communication system together with a transmitter and a satellite transponder, and the satellite transponder includes an HPA. The HPA linearization method includes determining an initial correction signal based on a physical model with a plurality of PD parameters to compensate AM-AM and AM-PM characteristics of the HPA; receiving a signal from the satellite transponder; determining a reward function for an action taken by the PD controller; examining an action-value function for actions taken in a preset past period; taking an action to adjust the plurality of PD parameters for the PD to generate an updated correction signal; sending the update correction signal to the transmitter to compensate the AM-AM and AM-PM characteristics of the HPA.
