Abstract
A transmitter for modulating an RF carrier signal with an input digital data stream is disclosed. The transmitter has a processor for generating digital phase and digital amplitude signals which characterise the input digital data stream, a signal generator for generating an RF carrier signal with a phase property defined by the generated digital phase signal, an amplifier arranged to receive the RF carrier signal as an input, and a bi-level switching circuit responsive to the generated digital amplitude signal to switch between the two levels to generate a voltage signal for supplying power to the amplifier.
