Abstract
In an 11 GHz link line system up to 7 TV channels shall be transmitted with SSB modulation from a single transmitter. The high linearity of the power amplifiers and the frequency converters required for that could be obtained by separate amplitude and phase pre-distortion of the radio signal. This paper describes the overall system architecture, the special circuit design, experimental results and the system performance objectives.Keywords
