With the continuous expansion of communication bandwidth, accurately modeling the non-linear characteristics of power amplifiers has become increasingly challenging, directly affecting the performance of digital pre-distortion (DPD) technology. The high peak-to-average power ratio and complex modulation schemes of wideband signals further exacerbate the difficulty of DPD implementation, necessitating more efficient algorithms. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a wideband DPD algorithm based on edge signal correction. By acquiring signals near the center frequency and comparing them with equally band-limited feedback signals, the algorithm effectively reduces the required processing bandwidth. The incorporation of cross-terms for model calibration enhances the model fitting accuracy, leading to significant improvement in pre-distortion performance. Simulation results demonstrate that compared with traditional DPD algorithms, the proposed method reduces the error vector magnitude (EVM) from 1.112% to 0.512%. Experimental validation shows an average improvement of 11.75 dBm in adjacent channel power at a 2 MHz frequency offset compared to conventional memory polynomial DPD. These improvements provide a novel solution for power amplifier linearization in wideband communication systems.
