Abstract

An amplifier circuit for delivering an output signal which varies in amplitude and in phase or frequency, has a power amplifier, an amplitude feedback circuit and a phase or frequency feedback circuit, both constituting closed loops together with said power amplifier, and at least one of said feedback circuits has its gain controllable in dependency of properties of the input or output signals, or both. A radio transmitter includes such an amplifier circuit, and a cellular telephone includes such a radio transmitter. The invention includes a method for controlling an output state in such a radio transmitter.
