Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods related to performing digital predistortion in radio frequency (RF) systems are provided. A digital predistortion (DPD) arrangement includes a DPD actuator circuit to predistort, using DPD coefficients, at least a portion of an input signal, the DPD coefficients associated with a characteristic of a nonlinear component. The DPD arrangement further includes a DPD capture circuit to perform, based on a capture cycle timing, multiple captures of a feedback signal, the feedback signal indicative of an output of the nonlinear component; compute, based on one or more characteristics of the multiple captures, one or more criteria for a subsequent capture of the feedback signal; and perform, based on the one or more criteria, the subsequent capture of the feedback signal. The DPD arrangement circuit further includes a DPD adaptation circuit to update the DPD coefficients based at least in part on the subsequent capture.
