1. A method of compensating for distortion of an input signal by an electronic device that operates on the input signal to produce an output signal, said method comprising:
- computing a set of model coefficients for a two-dimensional lattice prediction model of a basis function set from a set of input signal samples over a predetermined sampling interval, wherein the lattice prediction model represents basis functions in a predistorter basis function set as different combinations of power basis functions;

Abstract
A predistorter applies a distortion function to an input signal to predistort the input signal. The output of the distortion function is modeled as the sum of the output signals from the orthogonal basis functions weighted by corresponding weighting coefficients. Techniques are described for orthogonalizing the basis function output signals depending on the distribution of the input signal.
