Abstract:
1. A low power transmitter comprises: a signal generator operably coupled to generate a signal to represent data based on a first aspect of a transmission protocol, wherein the signal generator includes: a signal partitioning module operably coupled to partition the signal based on peak-to-average ratio of the signal to produce a plurality of signal partitions, wherein the signal partitioning module includes: a signal processing module operably coupled to process each of the plurality of signal partitions based on a second aspect of the transmission protocol to produce a plurality of processed signal partitions, wherein the signal processing module includes: a plurality of amplifiers, wherein each of the plurality of the amplifiers amplifies a corresponding one of the plurality of processed signal partitions to produce a plurality of amplified signal partitions; and a transmitting module operably coupled to transmit the plurality of amplified signal partitions as a composite amplified signal.
