Abstract

Nonlinearities play an imperative role in performance of wireless communication systems. In this paper, High Power Amplifiers (HPA) have been used to check the performance of the proposed system by analyzing its amplitude, phase and their joint distortions using Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) wireless communication system. This paper takes-in account the overall effects of HPA that provokes nonlinearities at the transmitter's end in a communication system. Therefore, a novel method for the HPA nonlinearities mitigation has been proposed to improve the performance of amplitude, phase and joint distortions in MIMO communication systems. The simulation results show an improvement in the overall effect of the MIMO system and enhance the input response on the transmitter side. Furthermore, this method has been proposed to exploit the benefits of the MIMO system to improve the Symbol Error Rate (SER) versus Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) curves for amplitude, phase and their joint distortions.
