A system and method for combining RF signals by a series of in-phase combiners. The system uses a series of switched, high efficiency amplifiers which may be selectively operated to obtain a desired output signal, such as an Amplitude Modulated (AM) signal. The output signals of the amplifiers are combined by a series of in-phase combiners. In a high linearity system a feedback loop is used to correct for combiner losses. The RF power normally lost in the combiners is recovered and available to increase the overall combiner efficiency.
