Abstract
By decomposing large multilevel constellations in polar components one can de- fine highly efficient transmitters based on multi- ple amplifiers. However, amplifiers’ imbalances might lead to substantial constellation distor- tion. By knowing the amplifier’s imbalances one can overcome this problem at the receiver side. In this paper we propose and evaluate efficient methods for estimating amplifier imbalances.
