Abstract
A combined signal of a digital pilot signal and a digital transmission signal is applied to a digital predistorter ( 20 ), wherein it is added with odd-order distortions based on a power series model to generate a predistorted signal, then the predistorted signal is converted by a DA converter ( 31 ) to an analog signal, then the analog signal is upconverted by a frequency upconverting part ( 33 ) to a send frequency band, and the upconverted signal is output after being amplified by a power amplifier ( 37 ). A pilot signal component is extracted from the power amplifier output, then odd-order distortion components of the power series model are extracted by a digital predistorter control part ( 50 ) from the pilot signal component, and the odd-order distortions in the digital predistorter ( 20 ) are controlled to decrease the levels of the distortion components.
