Abstract:
A system may include a first IQ modulator configured to: based on an I and a Q, produce a zero to ninety degree variable phase shifted output signal that changes relative to an input envelope of an RF drive waveform of the RF drive. The system may include a first amplifier path configured to: output a first phase modulated signal. The system may include a second IQ modulator configured to: based on the I and the −Q, produce a zero to negative ninety degree variable phase shifted output signal that changes relative to the input envelope. The system may include a second amplifier path configured to: output a second phase modulated signal, wherein the second phase modulated signal is complementary to the first phase modulated signal. The system may include a vector generator configured to: generate the Q and the −Q for the first and second IQ modulators, respectively.
