Abstract:
1. A modulation apparatus that outputs an output signal having a designated amplitude and a designated phase, the modulation apparatus comprising: a first modulating section that outputs a first modulated signal having a predetermined fixed amplitude and a set phase; a second modulating section that outputs a second modulated signal having the fixed amplitude and a set phase; an adding section that outputs the output signal to be the sum of the first modulated signal and the second modulated signal; a calculating section that calculates two phases to be set respectively in the first modulating section and the second modulating section, based on the designated amplitude and the designated phase; an allocating section that allocates, for the first modulated signal and the second modulated signal, the two phases calculated by the calculating section such that the first modulated signal and the second modulated signal are each connected more smoothly; and a setting section that sets the phase allocated for the first modulated signal in the first modulating section and sets the phase allocated for the second modulated signal in the second modulating section.
