Amplification apparatus and amplification method
Abstract:
In an amplification apparatus according to the present disclosure, a combining unit combines an output signal of a first amplifier provided at a first branch with an output signal of a second amplifier provided at a second branch and outputs the combined signal. A non-linearity compensation unit multiplies an input baseband signal by a non-linearity compensation coefficient for compensating non-linearity of the entire apparatus, a first deviation compensation unit multiplies a first branch signal by a first deviation compensation coefficient for compensating an inter-branch deviation, and a second deviation compensation unit multiplies a second branch signal by a second deviation compensation coefficient for compensating the inter-branch deviation. A compensation coefficient calculation unit calculates the non-linearity compensation coefficient, the first deviation compensation coefficient, and the second deviation compensation coefficient based on the input baseband signal and a feedback baseband signal obtained by feeding back the combined signal.
