Abstract: An apparatus for modulating a signal is described. The apparatus comprises a first modulation unit, a second modulation unit and at least one local oscillator providing a local oscillator signal with an initial frequency. Each modulation unit has a main modulation member and an auxiliary modulation member. The local oscillator is connected with the first and second modulation units via a first local oscillator sub path and a first local oscillator path as well as a second local oscillator sub path and a second local oscillator path respectively. The local oscillator sub paths process down-converted local oscillator signals. The main modulation member of each modulation unit is connected with one of the local oscillator sub paths. The auxiliary modulation member of each modulation unit is connected with one of the local oscillator sub paths and one of the local oscillator paths. Further, a method for modulating a signal is described.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for adjusting the amplification of a high frequency signal, a transmitter or receiver unit and a communication system. The aim of the invention is to provide a method and device for improved use of a polar-loop concept in a transmitter, especially for a mobile radio link. According to the method for adjusting the amplification of a high frequency signal, wherein the phase angle and the amplitude of an error-free input signal are separated from each other with a defined part of an output signal and readjusted, an output voltage of a battery voltage modulator is evaluated as a measure for an error at the output of a transmitter amplifier and taken into account in order to provide a correction.

Abstract: According to the present invention, the resistance to interference of a transmitting device, which is particularly embodied as a high frequency transmitter with a transmitter amplifier may be improved, whereby a loss-affected network, for example, in the form of a matching resistance, is coupled to the output of the transmitter amplifier, particularly in the case of low output power of the transmitter amplifier, in order to introduce an impedance-matching at the output of the transmitter amplifier. As such, the reflection of an interference signal coming from a transmitter antenna at the output of the transmitter amplifier can thus be reduced.

Abstract: In an FMCW distance measurement process, a wave train of carrier frequency f.sub.0 is modulated with a time function f(t) and subdivided into a transmission signal and into a reference signal in deterministic phase relationship with the transmission signal; the transmission signal is sent on a transmission section to be measured and the reference signal is supplied to a phase difference-forming arrangement; the signal reflected in the transmission section with a delay that corresponds to propagation time .tau. is also supplied as a reception signal to the phase difference-forming arrangement that forms the time difference function .theta.(t) between the phases of reference and reception signals; the phase difference function .theta.(t) is separately evaluated in a continuous fraction .theta..sub.= that corresponds to the carrier frequency f.sub.0 and in an alternating fraction .theta..sub.- (t) that corresponds to the modulation time function f(t); and the propagation time .tau.
