ABSTRACT:
An amplifier linearizer includes a signal adjuster having an internal signal, and an adaptation controller for monitoring the signal adjuster. The internal signal at an input to the adaptation controller is deemed a monitor signal. The adaptation controller generates a control signal for the signal adjuster by accounting for a difference between the internal and monitor signals.
