Abstract
The quality and efficiency of producing an amplified signal output from a feed-forward amplifier system having reduced distortion and noise is provided. Multiple signal cancellation loops are included in the feed-forward amplifier system so as to more accurately adjust the different frequencies within a frequency band. The multiple signal cancellation loops improve carrier cancellation levels and reduce the size of the error amplifier needed in the distortion cancellation loop and/or multiple distortion cancellation loops to improve distortion cancellation and reduce the size of the main power amplifier.
