Abstract
According to an embodiment, the modulated signal generating device modulates an input signal and generates an output signal. The modulated signal generating device includes a plurality of amplifiers, a combiner, a determining unit and a control signal generating unit. The plurality of amplifiers connects in parallel with one another and each configures to drive based on a control signal and to generate amplified signals. The combiner configures to combine the amplified signals and to obtain the output signal having a stepwise waveform. The determining unit configures to determine number of amplifiers to be driven based on a value of the input signal in a period shorter than a period of the input signal. The control signal generating unit configures to select zero or more amplifiers to be driven from among the amplifiers, based on the number of amplifiers determined by the determining unit, the value of the input signal, and a fluctuation in the value of the input signal, and to generate the control signal for driving the selected amplifier.
