Provided is a transmitter that compensates for AM/PM distortion and operate with low distortion and high efficiency. A compensation section 22 calculates an amplitude signal M representing the magnitude of a vector consisting of IPL and QPL signals which pass through LPFs 14 and 15, respectively, thereby predicting variation of the envelope of a radio frequency signal Pi, which variation occurs due to Ip′ and Qp′ signals passing through LPFs 12 and 13, respectively. The compensation section 22 calculates a phase compensation amount θcomp, based on the calculated amplitude signal M, and adds the phase compensation amount θcomp to a phase signal θ.

A signal generation section generates an amplitude signal and an angle-modulated signal. An adaptive compensation filter performs waveform shaping on the amplitude signal in accordance with a magnitude of the amplitude signal. An amplitude amplification section outputs a signal proportional to a magnitude of the signal subjected to waveform shaping in the adaptive compensation filter. An amplitude modulation section amplitude-modulates the angle-modulated signal by the signal outputted from the amplitude amplification section and outputs the resulting signal as a modulated signal. Characteristics of the adaptive compensation filter are inverse characteristics of transfer characteristics from an input of the amplitude amplification section to an output of the amplitude modulation section.

Provided is a transmission circuit which is small in size, operates with high efficiency, and outputs a transmission signal having high linearity. A signal generation section 11 generates an amplitude signal m(t) and a phase signal. An angle modulation section 17 angle-modulates the phase signal to output an angle-modulated signal. An amplitude calculation section 12 outputs a discrete value signal V(t) having a plurality of discrete values corresponding to a magnitude of the amplitude signal m(t). A dividing section 13 divides the amplitude signal m(t) by the discrete value signal V(t) to output an amplitude signal M(t). A delta-sigma modulation section 14 delta-sigma modulates the amplitude signal M(t) to output a delta-sigma modulated signal. A variable gain amplifier section 15 amplifies the delta-sigma modulated signal by a gain corresponding to the discrete value signal V(t). An amplitude amplifying section 16 supplies, to an amplitude modulation section 18, a voltage corresponding to a magnitude of the delta-sigma modulated signal. The amplitude modulation section 18 amplitude-modulates the angle-modulated signal by the voltage supplied from the amplitude amplifying section 16, to output a modulation signal.

摘要:
A transmission circuit for outputting transmission signals with a low distortion and a high efficiency over a wide range of output power is provided. A signal generation section (11) generates an amplitude signal and a phase signal. An angle modulation section (12) performs angle modulation on the phase signal and outputs an angle-modulated signal. A regulator (14) receives the amplitude signal via a variable gain amplification section (18) and supplies a voltage controlled based on the magnitude of the amplitude signal to the amplitude modulation section (15). The amplitude modulation section (15) performs amplitude modulation on the angle-modulated signal and outputs a modulated signal to the variable attenuation section (16). When the value of power information is smaller than a predetermined threshold value, the control section (19) increases the gain of the variable gain amplification section (18) and the attenuation of the variable attenuation section (16).
摘要:
A self-calibrating modulator apparatus includes a modulator having a controlled oscillator and an oscillator gain calibration circuit. The oscillator gain calibration circuit includes an oscillator gain coefficient calculator configured to calculate a plurality of frequency dependent oscillator gain coefficients from results of measurements taken at the output of the controlled oscillator in response to a test pattern signal representing a plurality of different reference frequencies. The plurality of frequency dependent gain coefficients determined from the calibration process are stored in a look up table (LUT), where they are made available after the calibration process ends to scale a modulation signal applied to the modulator. By scaling the modulation signal prior to it being applied to the control input of the controlled oscillator, the nonlinear response of the controlled oscillator is countered and the modulation accuracy of the modulator is thereby improved.

A bandpass type delta sigma modulation section 15 performs delta sigma modulation on an inputted modulation signal such that quantization noise is reduced in a frequency band which requires low noise. An LPF 16 removes a noise component in a high frequency region from the signal on which the delta sigma modulation has been performed. A frequency modulation circuit 1 reduces noise in the frequency band which requires low noise with the bandpass type delta sigma modulation section 15 and the LPF 16, and reduces noise in the vicinity of a direct current component DC with a feedback comparison section 11 and a loop filter 12.
