  abstract     = {{n modern telecommunications, the ever increasing demands on signal bandwidth with the adoption of Millimeter Wave (mm-W) frequency bands for the Fifth-Generation (5G) standard make ensuring Power Amplifier (PA) linearity, while maintaining efficiency, a major challenge in the design of Transmitter (TX) circuits. As Digital Pre-
Distortion (DPD) linearizers become too power hungry for wide-band applications, various Analog Pre-Distortion (APD) techniques have been explored as alternatives. However, the applicability of these is typically limited to a single or a narrow range of PA
topologies. This work presents a novel concept for a combined DPD and APD system with a tunable transfer function for the APD allowing for digital control by the DPD based on the PA distortion characteristic. As a result power consumption can be reduced
compared to pure DPD and the system may be utilized to linearize a wide range of different PAs.}},
