Patent abstract
A predistorter for an electro-optical converter includes a plurality of low noise RF amplifiers distributed along a transmission line that receive an RF input. Second order intermodulation injection (IM2) circuitry includes an inductively-degenerated frequency doubler to square and filter IM2 products of the RF input. A Mach-Zehnder Modulator (MZM) is used for electro-optical conversion. Feed forward circuitry injects IM2 to independently propagate RF intermodulation components with velocity matching to the MZM. At least one driver injects the RF input and RF intermodulation components into the MZM.
