Abstract
A method is presented to synthesize a switching signal which linearly encodes a complex-modulated RF signal to an RF carrier frequency. The switching distortion associated with this method is limited to high-pass components out of band. Consequently, the switching signal may be filtered after high efficiency amplification to produce the linear RF modulation. The method requires a switching frequency slightly higher than the highest frequency in the band of interest.
