- Abstract
- A multiport amplifier modulates a reference quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) signal using an input RF signal to an input hybrid network, generates a plurality of binary phase shift keying (BPSK) signals by demodulating RF signals that are amplified by a plurality of power amplifiers, detects an amplitude error and a phase error of two corresponding amplified RF signals by comparing a QPSK signal that is generated by coupling two RF signals having a phase difference of 90° among the plurality of BPSK signals with a reference QPSK signal, and compensates the detected amplitude error and phase error.
