Abstract
The present invention provides a distortion precompensator and method of compensating for distortion in a transmission medium and a transmitter employing the same. In one embodiment, the distortion precompensator includes a controller, associated with a transmitter, that employs a predetermined precompensation signal. The distortion precompensator also includes an injector that injects a predetermined precompensation value as a function of the precompensation signal into a waveform propagating along the transmission medium thereby substantially compensating for distortion associated therewith.
