Model power amplifier with memory
RF Blockset / Circuit Envelope / Elements
The Power Amplifier block models two-port power amplifiers. A memory polynomial expression derived from the Volterra series models the nonlinear relationship between input and output signals. This power amplifier includes memory effects because the output response depends on the current input signal and the input signal at previous times. These power amplifiers are useful when transmitting wideband or narrowband signals.
