N2 - This paper presents a new predistortion method which injects the 2 nd order low frequency intermodulation signal of the RF signal into the input bias line of the amplifier. We show this technique can suppress the 3rd IM and the 5th IM apparently by adjusting 2 factors, phase and amplitude, through mathematical analysis, and then confirm it with simulation. Also, we design a digital cellular amplifier to show variation of the optimal performance without additional circuits or controls for the operating range. When the input signal CDMA IS-95 1FA was applied, measured ACPR improvements were 25 dBc, 22.5 dBc, and 6 dBc at 0.855 MHz, 1.25 MHz, and 2.25 MHz offset respectively. Also, when applying the CDMA IS-95 3FA, the measured ACPR improvement showed 16 dBc at 0.885 MHz offset.
