ABSTRACT:
A feed-forward amplifier with an input arranged to receive wide-band signals and an output to supply a linearly amplified version of these has two parallel signal paths arranged between such input and output, one of the signal paths includes a cascade connection of a signal amplifier and a delay network and the second signal path includes an error amplifier, an error extraction circuit having a directional coupler in which an input side has a first pair of conjugate first and second ports and is connected partly to the input of the feed-forward amplifier and partly to an output of the signal amplifier and an output side has a second pair of conjugate third and fourth ports, the fourth port being connected to an input of the error amplifier, and an error injection circuit which has a first and a second input connected to an output of the delay network and to an output of the error amplifier, respectively and an output connected to the output of the feed-forward amplifier, the error extraction circuit having the third port of the directional coupler connected to an input of the signal amplifier and a summation circuit having a first and second input connected to the input of the feed-forward amplifier and to the output of the signal amplifier, respectively, and an output connected to the second port of the directional coupler.
