Abstract

A transmitter (106) for transmitting a signal, the signal comprising a plurality of signal values, the signal values being grouped to at least one signal value block. The transmitter comprises a pre-transformation unit (101) adapted to process each signal value block by a pre-transformation to produce a block of modulation symbols, wherein the pre-transformation comprises a phase rotation of the signal block values, which corresponds to the multiplication of the signal value block with a phase rotation matrix. The transmitter also comprises a modulation unit (102) adapted to modulate at least one carrier signal based on the modulation symbols and a sending unit (104) adapted to send the modulated carrier signal.
