Abstract
The effect of amplifier nonlinearity is analyzed for M-QAM full-duplex communications in additive white Gaussian noise channels. Two classical memoryless nonlinear amplifier models, i.e., a traveling-wave tube amplifier and a solid-state power amplifier, are considered. An analytical expression for the bit error ratio is derived using a characteristic function and numerical integration. Theoretical results show perfect agreement with those obtained by simulation. The analytical results could be used to evaluate the degradation in performance of an M-QAM full-duplex system caused by amplifier nonlinearity, and will be helpful in finding the optimal static operating point of an amplifier.
