Abstract

Some embodiments herein describe a radio frequency power semiconductor device that include a first non-linear filter network for compensating for lower frequency noise of a power amplifier. The first non-linear filter network can include a plurality of infinite impulse response filters and corresponding corrective elements to correct for a non-linear portion of the power amplifier. The radio frequency power semiconductor device can further include a second non-linear filter network for compensating for broadband distortion. The second non-linear filter network can be connected in parallel to the first non-linear filter network. The broadband distortion can include digital predistortion and the narrowband distortion can include charge trapping effects. The first non-linear filter network can comprise Laguerre filters. The second non-linear filter network can comprise general memory polynomial filters.
