Highly linear analog-to-digital conversion system and method thereof

A highly linear analog-to-digital (ADC) conversion system has an analog front-end device in cascade with a standard ADC converter, and a tunable digital non-linear equalizer. The equalizer corrects the quantization distortion, deviations from ideal response, and additive noises generated by the analog front-end device and ADC converter. The equalizer is formed by three main parts: Generate Function Streams Unit, Finite Impulse Response FIR filters and a summer. The equalizer receives the unequalized output from the ADC converter and generates a plurality of monomial streams in a systolic fashion. Each of the monomial streams is passed through a corresponding linear finite impulse response FIR filter. A convolution sum of all outputs from the FIR filters produces a unique equalized output with the non-linear distortion reduced to a satisfactory level. The FIR filter coefficients are determined by an Identity Equalizer Coefficient Unit, and a Test Signal Generator with different types of test signals. The FIR filter coefficients are set to minimize an error function.

A method for canceling interference at a wireless code division multiple access (CDMA) communication receiver is provided. The wireless CDMA communication system receiver receives a stream of chips generated by spreading data symbols formed by grouping bits of information at a wireless CDMA communication transmitter which are broadcast at a certain chip-rate. The received chips are de-spread and symbols pertaining to respective users are reconstructed. The method includes formatting the stream of chips into blocks of chips, and performing an iterative block decision feedback equalization in a frequency domain at the chip-rate of the broadcast stream of chips to remove inter-symbol interference by defining a transfer function. The transfer function is defined based upon iteration cycles as a function of data detected in a preceding iteration cycle. The chips generated are interleaved by spreading each data symbol being transmitted before broadcasting the stream of interleaved chips in distinct blocks of chips.

Integrating volterra series model and deep neural networks to equalize nonlinear power amplifiers

The nonlinearity of power amplifiers (PAs) has been a severe constraint in performance of modern wireless transceivers. This problem is even more challenging for the fifth generation (5G) cellular system since 5G signals have extremely high peak to average power ratio. Nonlinear equalizers that exploit both deep neural networks (DNNs) and Volterra series models are provided to mitigate PA nonlinear distortions. The DNN equalizer architecture consists of multiple convolutional layers. The input features are designed according to the Volterra series model of nonlinear PAs. This enables the DNN equalizer to effectively mitigate nonlinear PA distortions while avoiding over-fitting under limited training data. The non-linear equalizers demonstrate superior performance over conventional nonlinear equalization approaches.

Method and Apparatus for Complex In-Phase/Quadrature Polyphase Nonlinear Equalization

Complex polyphase nonlinear equalizer (cpNLEQs) mitigate nonlinear distortions generated by complex in-phase / quadrature (I / Q) time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters (TIADCs). Example cpNLEQs upsample the digital waveform emitted by the TIADC, e.g., by a factor of two, then separate the upsampled digital waveform into upsampled in-phase and quadrature components. Processors in the cpNLEQs create real and imaginary nonlinear compensation terms from the upsampled in-phase and quadrature components. The nonlinear compensation terms are downsampled, and the downsampled imaginary nonlinear compensation term is phase-shifted, then combined with the downsampled real component to produce an estimated residual distortion. Subtracting the estimated residual distortion from the digital waveform emitted by the TIADC yields an equalized digital waveform suitable for further processing.
