Transmitting signals containing amplitude modulated (AM) and phase modulation (PM) components requires a transmitter having AM and PM control loops. The PM control loop provides phase modulation, frequency translation and phase predistortion for the transmitter. The phase predistortion/correction is accomplished by using an oscillator, thus, the amount of PA phase correction is essentially unlimited. Additionally, the PM control loop is nested about a power amplifier (PA), allowing the PM control loop to correct for any distortion introduced by the PA.
