Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we propose a technique to solve the problem of power efficiency and modulation accuracy due to quantization noise and the problem of power efficiency degradation due to switching loss of Class D power amplifier for quadrature-modulation (QM) envelope pulse-width modulation (EPWM) wireless transmitter. For the former problem, we proposed a quantization noise canceling technique, a quantization noise removal and recovery technique, and a transmitter architecture that does not generate quantization noise. For the latter, we propose Class DE modification of class D PA and a QM-EPWM transmitter architecture that satisfies zero current switching (ZCS) condition. Furthermore, the impact of these proposed techniques is shown by simulation and experiment.
