Abstract

See full text

A process for compensating nonlinearities in an amplifier circuit. An input signal s(t) is amplified to form an output signal y(t) using an amplifier circuit subject to nonlinearities. In accordance with the invention, a predistortion filter is connected upstream of the amplifier circuit. An aggregate signal ##EQU1## is formed in said filter from the input signal s(t) and a predistorted signal x(t) fed back from the output of the predistortion filter, and integrated with respect to time. The predistorted signal x(t) is fed to the amplifier circuit subject to nonlinearities. In this case, the prescribed number n+1 of coefficients k.sub.0, . . . , K.sub.n is determined in accordance with the model ##EQU2## so that for a given input signal x(t) of the amplifier circuit the output signal determined in accordance with the model is essentially identical with the output signal y(t) of the amplifier circuit.
