Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
171 words
A distortion compensating circuit for compensating a nonlinear distortion generated in an amplifier for amplifying a signal modulated by a base band signal, comprising: distortion correcting means that is intermittently operated, including a memory storage for storing distortion compensating data for compensating the nonlinear distortion in the output of said amplifier, and a subtracter for subtracting said distortion compensating data in said memory storage from said base band signal to output a corrected base band signal; a modulator for modulating a carrier signal by said corrected base band signal outputted from said distortion correcting means to output a modulated signal to said amplifier; a demodulator for demodulating a part of the signal outputted from said modulator; comparing means for comparing the demodulated signal outputted from said demodulator with said base band signal to output said distortion compensating data to said memory storage; and initial value setting means for setting an initial value of said distortion compensating data in said memory storage, said initial value being sufficient to compensate the nonlinear distortion.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
