A system and method of pilot tone reuse. The present invention therefore provides
a feedforward amplifier, comprising: an input that accepts a radio frequency signal
having multiple carriers; a first control loop including a main amplifier block
and a detector, wherein the first control loop generates a first carrier cancelled
signal; a second control loop including a pilot generator, I/Q demodulator, vector
modulator and first error amplifier block, wherein the pilot generator, I/Q demodulator
and first error amplifier block amplify the first carrier cancelled signal and
generates a pilot signal; a third control loop comprising a vector modulator and
a second carrier cancellation detector; and a fourth control loop comprising of
vector modulator, a second error amplifier block, and a pilot signal receiver for
receiving the pilot signal generated by the pilot generator in the second error
amplifier block such that the pilot signal is reused by the fourth control loop
to thereby further cancel intermodulation distortion in the output of the main
amplifier block.
