Algorithms

If we take LTE as an example with high performance targets, every part of the transmit and receive chain becomes critical to the link budget

So how to decide the optimum balance, without over-designing?

How are design requirements impacted going from QPSK to 16QAM to 64QAM?

RF System Architecture– “Spectrasys” continuous spectrum simulation

Full continuous spectrum at every node (unique RF simulator)

Track origin and propagation of spurs, noise, mismatch, leakage paths

Easily plot Budget & Spectral info

Create and refine RF System Architectures, then use them in System-level Dataflow

A base-station user says . . .“After briefly using SPECTRASYS on a 'must work right the first time' RF design, I identified several issues that were undetected in our spreadsheets and current simulation tools. I'm absolutely positive that it has saved us at least one board spin! ”

RFLINK – “Virtualizes the RF” to enable concurrency

Drag & DropDataflow modeling “on the fly”

Automated model-based link captures RF effects: - power/frequency-dependence- broadband noise spectral densities- spectral inversion from up/downconversion

Fast, convenient, enables BB-RF concurrent designEnjoy superior RF results with less detailed

RF knowledge, and less RF flow integration

Using X-Parameters in dataflow with “RF Link”

X-parameter physical effects – contribute to the overall RF System performance– therefore affect link-level Dataflow performance also

Baseband and System-level users – can also enjoy convenient access to RF implementation accuracy,

without understanding the RF design, or learning/maintain the RF tools

Volterra series pre-distorter can be described by

where

Which is a 2-dimensional summation of power series & past time envelope responses

A full Volterra produces a huge computational load. People usually simplify it into• Wiener model • Hammerstein model • Wiener-Hammerstein model• Memory polynomial model

DPD principles – Memory Polynomial Model

If only diagonal terms are kept, Volterra reduces to “Memory polynomial” model.

Agilent uses an indirect learning algorithm to extract MP coefficients.

As of SystemVue 2011.10, you can now add your own model, extraction algorithm, and even create your own GUI.

• Oversampling increases this bandwidth an additional 3x-5x

• Drives wider ADC/DAC, data rates, test equipment, & more

• Requires powerful embedded processors : DSP/FPGA/ASIC

DPD challenges for 4G/wideband systems

• Carrier aggregation increases PAPR (drives Efficiency down)

• Highly-configurable signals (time-varying RBs) can lead to worst-case RF scenarios

• People apply Crest Factor Reduction differently….….how to estimate the effect of CFR on your PA if someone else is doing the DSP?

The download power and length of the waveform can also be set.

Step 1. Create DPD stimulus waveform• LTE parameters such as bandwidth, Resource Block allocation and others

can be set.• Switch LTE or LTE-Advanced waveform

Connect the MXG/AWG directly to the PXA/M9392A and click the “Capture Waveform” button. The captured signal is the input of the PA.

Connect the MXG to the PA, connect the PA to the PXA/M9392A, and click the “Capture Waveform” button. The captured signal is the output of the PA DUT.

The measured I/Q files are stored and used in following steps.

54

Step 2. Capture PA response• SystemVue interfaces directly to the MXG or M9330A AWG (source) and PXA

or M9392A(analyzer).• Instrument parameters such as number of signal, trace assignment and file

name can be set.

Conclusion

New bandwidth and linearity requirements are driving 4G designers to spec DPD earlier in their system designs

The velocity of the industry is pushing DPD activity in-house, where designers are taking a more active role

The integration of an open Comms EDA environment with versatile wideband instruments enables

– Flexibility for modeling, realization, validation, and troubleshooting– Higher performance– Integration with the baseband DSP you are already doing
