Abstract: A modulator and a method of modulating utilizes phase or frequency modulation and amplitude modulation. A delay circuit or synchronization circuit is utilized to coordinate the performance of amplitude modulation and phase modulation. The amplitude modulation can be provided after phase modulation is provided to the signal. The modulation circuit can be utilized in any frequency range including high frequency and low frequency circuits.
