Abstract

A distortion compensation apparatus includes a distortion compensation unit that performs distortion compensation processing on a transmission signal by a series operation, a coefficient update unit that updates a group of series operation coefficients used for the series operation based on a feedback signal of transmission signal output that is output after power amplification processing is performed on output of the distortion compensation unit and the transmission signal, an initial coefficient memory that stores the groups of series operation coefficients that become initial values for coefficient update processing by the coefficient update unit, and a power fluctuation detection unit that detects a power fluctuation of the transmission signal and, when the power fluctuation is detected, reads the groups of series operation coefficients from the initial coefficient memory and provides the groups of series operation coefficients to the coefficient update unit.
