In a method and a device for reduction of intermodulation distortion in radio communication systems, a signal, which is intended to be transmitted, is fed to an active antenna for transmission in a main lobe. The antenna includes a plurality of transmitter stages each of which is supplied with a partial signal and includes an input stage, an amplifier, an output stage and an antenna element. A first phase rotation of each partial signal is performed before each amplifier, and a second phase rotation of each partial signal is performed after each amplifier. The sum of the first phase rotation and the second phase rotation is chosen to a value which is constant, and the second phase rotation is chosen so that an intermodulation lobe which is transmitted from the antenna is controlled in a direction which deviates substantially from the direction of said main lobe. |
