Abstract

A linearizer for a non-linear transmitter includes a tap delay line that provides samples of an input signal at selected times. At least one Volterra tap is coupled to the tape delay line. The Volterra tap includes a lookup table representation of a polynomial. An adaptive controller is coupled to the Volterra tap for modifying values in the lookup table.
