Abstract

A quadrature out-phasing system comprising: a first baseband signal modifier (6) arranged to receive a first baseband signal component (2) and output a first constant envelope RF carrier (12) and a second constant envelope RF carrier (14); and a second baseband signal modifier (8) arranged to receive a second baseband signal component (4) and output a third constant envelope RF carrier (16) and a fourth constant envelope RF carrier (18). The system may further comprise: a first signal combiner (500) arranged to combine the first constant envelope RF carrier (12) and the second constant envelope RF carrier (14), and arranged to output a first RF PWM signal (94); and a second signal combiner (502) arranged to combine the third constant envelope RF carrier (16) and the fourth constant envelope RF carrier (18), and arranged to output a second RF PWM signal (96).
