Abstract

A feedforward amplifier is linearized by adapting off the detection of an applied modulation source. The feedforward amplifier has two loops: a first loop and a second loop. Modulators in the two loops are adjusted by controllers that adapt in response to detection of the modulation source injected into the first loop.
