Additional information

This is the first practical demonstration of our entirely new mathematical technique to improve power amplifiers in terms of power, linearity and spectral efficiency, which is widely applicable to microwave transmitters. The technique showed significant improvement over previous methods with the error vector magnitude improving from 6.9% to 0.7%, meeting communication standards, and the out of band distortion, characterised by adjacent channel leakage ratio reducing by 34 dB. The work was in collaboration with industry (Microwave Technology Inc and Eudyna) and Queens University, Belfast and an output from an EPSRC grant (£278k).
