Claim 12:
13. The transmitter of claim 1, wherein the modification circuity is configured to sequentially modify the respective phase information of an in-phase component and a quadrature component of the baseband signal based on the sequence of first control words to generate a modified in-phase component and a modified quadrature component of the baseband signal as the modulation control signal, and wherein the modulation circuitry comprises:
mixer circuitry configured to:
generate a first component of the RF transmit signal by modulating the RF carrier signal with the modified in-phase component of the baseband signal; and
generate a second component of the RF transmit signal by modulating a 90° phase shifted replica of the RF carrier signal with the modified quadrature component of the baseband signal; and
signal combining circuitry configured to generate the RF transmit signal by combining the first component of the RF transmit signal and the second component of the RF transmit signal.
