A digital communications transmitter (100) includes a digital linear-and-nonlinear predistortion section (200, 1800, 2800) to compensate for linear and nonlinear distortion introduced by transmitter-analog components (120). A direct-digital-downconversion section (300) generates a complex digital return-data stream (254) from the analog components (120) without introducing quadrature imbalance. A relatively low resolution exhibited by the return-data stream (254) is effectively increased through arithmetic processing. Distortion introduced by an analog-to-digital converter (304) may be compensated using a variety of adaptive techniques. Linear distortion is compensated using adaptive techniques with an equalizer (246) positioned in the forward-data stream (112). Nonlinear distortion is then compensated using adaptive techniques with a plurality of equalizers (226) that filter a plurality of orthogonal, higher-ordered-basis functions (214) generated from the forward-data stream (112). The filtered-basis functions are combined together and subtracted from the forward-data stream (112). | ||||||

A high-linear amplifier receives, from an input bandpass filter, input signals including weak process signals and strong interference signals, amplifies the input signals, and transmits the amplified signals to an output bandpass filter. The high-linear amplifier includes a transistor and a feedback circuit that stabilizes the operating current of the transistor. The operating current includes the direct-current and low-frequency output signal currents of the transistor. The feedback circuit includes an interference detector that rectifies a portion of the high-frequency output signals of the transistor and extends the linear range of the high-linear amplifier. An interference indicator unit alerts an operator to the presence of excessively high levels of interference before the high-linear amplifier enters the non-linear mode. Amplified signals rejected by the output bandpass filter are reflected back to the high-linear amplifier stage. A directional coupler prevents the reflected signals from disrupting the operation of the interference detector. | ||||||
