In this paper, the new hybrid adaptive Volterra filter was proposed to be applied for compensating the nonlinear distortion of memoryless nonlinear systems with saturation characteristics. Through computer simulations as well as the analytical analysis, it could be shown that it is possible for both conventional Volterra filter and proposed hybrid Volterra filter, to be applied for linearizing the memoryless nonlinear system with nonlinear distortion. Also, the simulations results demonstrated that the proposed hybrid filter may have faster convergence speed and better capability of compensating the nonlinear distortion than the conventional Volterra filter.

In this paper, the new robust active noise controller was proposed to be applied for attenuating the noises when the nonlinear distortion in the secondary path exists. Through computer simulations as well as the analytical analysis, it could be shown that it is possible for both conventional LMS controller and proposed controller, to be applied for actively controlling the noises and linearizing the nonlinear distortion in the secondary path. Also, the simulations results demonstrated that the proposed controller may have faster convergence speed and better capability of controlling the noises and compensating the nonlinear distortion than the conventional LMS controller.

In this paper, the effect of nonlinear distortion, caused by a high-power amplifier (HPA) in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system, on the receiver part is analyzed. Since the HPA, which can be modeled by a memoryless Volterra system, distorts OFDM signals in a nonlinear fashion, the received signal at each subchannel includes the multiplicative distortion of 1-st order as well as additive nonlinear distortion of higher-order. The nonlinear distortion can be viewed as a nonlinear interchannel interference (NICI) since it consists of harmonic distortions and intermodulation distortions, produced by other subchannels affecting the subchannel of interest. In this paper, were analytically derive the variance of NICI in terms of average input power using the Volterra model for HPA, and then calculate the bit-error rate (BER) performance of an OFDM system. Also, we propose a simple method to compensate for the phase distortion in OFDM system amplified by HPA, and calculate its BER performance. Validity of the proposed approach is verified by computer simulations for an OFDM system employing 16-QAM constellation input.

In This Paper, Linearization problem is discussed to reduce distortion of a nonlinear system based on Schetzen's pth-orfer inverse theorem. We propose a nonlinear adaptive prefiltering algorithm which can reduse nonlinear distortion up to pth order by tandemly connecting a pth-order Volterra filter before the nonlinear system under the consideration and by adjusting the filter coefficients adaptively. The feasibility of applying the proposed algorithm to a nonlinear system is conformed via computer simulation by observing significant reduction of total nonlinear distortion for the case of random input and sinusoidal input excitation.

We show that the minimum EOP (eye-opening penalty) obtained by tunable dispersion compensation is a function of a figure of merit for a nonlinear process, $I_0L_{eff}$, where $I_0$ is the optical intensity and $L_{eff}$ is the effective length of the interaction region. Using this rule, we do not need to conduct nonlinear simulations in all the cases of signal power and transmission length to obtain the signal distortion in dispersion-managed optical transmission. Instead, we need to conduct a simulation in only one case of a signal power and find the functional relation, and then we can obtain the values of the signal distortion in other cases using the discovered functional relation. This technique can reduce the number of nonlinear simulations to less than 10%.

As the recording density of digital magnetic recording channels increased, the nonlinear distortion caused by inadequate rise-times, demagnetizing field, and overwrite effect during the recording process becomes significant, resulting in limitation on the recording rate. In this paper, a new method for identifying the nonlinear distortion in hihg-density magnetic recording channel using and i.i.d. (independent, identically distributed) inut is described. The proposed method does not require the operatin of large-size matrix inversion which are necessary for the conventional method, and it enables us to estimate nonlinear parameters transition shifts, which can be used to compensate the nonlinear distortion, is demonstrated by computer simulations.

To reduce the nonlinear distortion of high power amplifier(HPA) in down link OFCDM system to employ time domain spreading, we apply technology which transmits MPSK(Multilevel-PSK) signal after clipping on multilevel input signal of IFFT subcarrier. In case that the nonlinear distortion of HPA is considered in AWGN channel, performacne of clipping OFCDM system using extended m sequence is over 2.2㏈ better than that of OFCDM system using extended m sequence when the number of user is 8 and 16. In case that the nonlinear distortion of HPA is considered in quasi-static channel, performacne of clipping OFCDM system using extended m code is over 2㏈ better than that of OFCDM system using extended m sequence when the number of user is 8 and 16.

In this paper, musical tone, especially instrument tones are synthesized using nonlinear distortion technique. Nonlinear distortion is very simple but versatile method when you synthesize musical instrument tones. It basically consists of one sine oscillator and amplifier which makes distortion to Input wave. Output wave has many harmonics that can be controlled by varying shaping function, which is the transfer function of nonlinear amplifier. Shaping function Is obtained from the analyzed harmonic amplitude data. Given harmonics amplitudes, Chebyshev polynomial is used to produce the shaping function that exactly makes the given harmonics at steady state. We contructed non -real time nonlinear distortion synthesizer program running at IBM-PC. To quantify the satis faction of synthesised tones, listening test is carried out, and the result is presented.

The electrodynamic loudspeakers should have a wide dynamic range to reproduce various sound levels. When the input signal is small, the radiated sound from the loudspeaker is not so much distorted. However, for large input signal with low frequency component the radiated sound is significantly distorted due to the nonlinearities of the loudspeaker. The suspension, damping, and magnetic flux of loudspeaker are the main sources of the nonlinearity. Such electromechanical parameters related to harmonic distortion have been represented by a polynomial model for diaphragm displacement, while each of the polynomial coefficient is evaluated by using the principle of harmonic balance experimentally. Based on the polynomial model, we designed a compensator for nonlinear harmonic distortion of direct radiator loudspeaker. Than observer is used to estimate the displacement of the loudspeaker diaphragm, which is rather difficult to measure directly in the conventional setting. The usefulness of the designed compensator is demonstrated by numerical simulations. Simulation results show about 30db decrease at the second and third higher harmonic distortions. We carry out an experiment on speaker to verify designed controller and nonlinear observer.

OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) signals sutler serious nonlinear distortion in the nonlinear HPA(High Power Amplifier) because of high PAPR(Peak Average Power Ratio). Nonlinear distortion can be improved by a pre-distorter, but this pre-distorter is insufficient when the PAPR is very high in an OPFDM system. In this paper, a DFT(Discrete Fourier Transform) transform technique is introduced for PAPR reduction. It is especially important to consider the memory effect of HPA for more precise predistortion. Therefore, in this paper, we consider two models, the TWTA(Traveling-Wave Tube Amplifier) model of Saleh without a memory effect and the HPA memory polynomial model that has a memory effect. We design a pre-distorter and an adaptive pre-distorter that uses the NLMS(Normalized Least Mean Square) algorithm for the compensation of this nonlinear distortion. Without the consideration of a memory effect, the system performance would be degraded, even if the pre-distorter is used for the compensation of the nonlinear distortion. From the simulation results, we can confirm that the proposed system shows an improvement in performance.
