Abstract

See full text

A transmitter, a transmission system and a transmission method whereby AM-PM distortions can be compensated with high accuracy without affecting the functions of a predistortor, a ΔΣ modulator and so on. The transmitter includes: a baseband signal generation circuit that outputs the amplitude value and phase value of a baseband signal; a ΔΣ modulation circuit that performs a ΔΣ modulation of the outputted amplitude and phase values to output a pulse signal train; a power supply modulation circuit that supplies, to a pre-stage amplifier, a voltage determined in accordance with the outputted amplitude value; the pre-stage amplifier and a post-stage amplifier that amplify the outputted pulse signal train; and a filter circuit that generates an output signal from the pulse signal train as amplified and outputs the output signal. The power supply modulation circuit determines the voltage for canceling a phase error occurring in the post-stage amplifier.
