Abstract:
The present invention, which relates to a multi-path communication device for sharing a feedback path for digital pre-distortion, includes: a DPD processing unit configured to output a plurality of pre-distorted signals by respectively pre-distorting a plurality of input signals, to output an n th  control signal when an n th  input signal is input, and to output an n th  pre-distorted signal using an n th  feedback signal input in response to the n th  control signal; a power amplifying unit configured to amplify each of the plurality of pre-distorted signals and output a plurality of amplified signals; a signal combining unit configured to combine some of each of the plurality of amplified signals and output combined feedback signal; and a signal selection unit configured to select and output only the n th  feedback signal from the combined feedback signal according to the input n th  control signal, thereby preventing an increase in the size of a device and manufacturing cost thereof caused by a plurality of DPD feedback paths.

Claim (Index 5):
The communication device of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a digital-to-analog converter configured to convert the plurality of pre-distorted signals into analog signals and output the converted pre-distorted signals when the plurality of pre-distorted signals are received from the DPD processing unit, wherein the power amplifying unit is configured to amplify each of the plurality of pre-distorted signals that are converted into the analog signals.
