DPD Linearization Complexity Reduction of Remote Radio Heads in C-RAN with Radio over Fiber Fronthaul
2018
Radio-over-Fiber (RoF) is a suitable technology for efficiently developing the cloud-RAN concept in Fifth Generation (5G) deployments based on Long Term Evolution Advanced LTE-A. Distortion coming out from the radiofrequency (RF) power amplifier should be taken into account in order to achieve the desired performance at the base station. In this paper, a complexity reduction technique based on a variable degree polynomial predistorter is proposed. The obtained results show that it is possible to achieve a reduction of operations with a penalty of 1.6 dB in ACLR and negligible impact on the EVM.
