Résumé : In this paper, we propose a pre-distortion algorithm for a two carriers non-linear satellite communication channel. In the considered scenario, two linearly modulated carriers are amplified by the same non-linear power amplifier aboard the satellite. Due to the presence of the shaping filter at the transmitter side and the receiver filter (and possibly interference with filters aboard the satellite), the received signal is affected by non-linear intersymbol interference (ISI) but also non-linear adjacent channel interference (ACI). We consider the case where the two signals are transmitted from the same gateway, so that joint pre-distortion of the two signals is possible. Simulations for the 8PSK modulation show that the algorithm is able to greatly reduce the impact of the non-linear interference.
