Abstract:Aimed at the harmonic distortion problem in the air-modulated speaker(AMS), the AMS behavioral model was represented by a Hammerstein structure, and the research on predistortion of AMS based on this model was made. As the DC offset exists in the nonlinearity of the Hammerstein model, a predistortion algorithm considering the DC offset compensation was developed. The validity of the algorithm and the necessity of the DC offset compensation were verified by computer simulation. In the experiment, a single sinusoidal excitation signal was first used to identify the Hammerstein model. Then, using the identified system parameters, the NFxPEM algorithm was performed to obtain the parameters of Wiener predistorter and to predistort the excitation signal. From the experiment results, it is found that our approach is effective in reducing the harmonic power with a relatively small upgrade in the fundamental frequency power.
