Patent ID: 7095277

Claim:
A power amplifier device comprising: means for separating a high frequency signal having both amplitude and phase variations into an In-phase (I) component signal (S I ) and into a Quadrature (Q) component signal (S Q ); a Signal Conditioning Device comprising: means for generating an n-state level I component signal (S TI ) from said I component signal (S I ), means for generating an n-state level Q component signal (S TQ ) from said Q component signal (S Q ), and means for interleaving the n-state level I component signal and the n-state level Q component signal into, a non-overlapping in time, I component signal (S TI ) and Q component signal (S TQ ); a multiplexer for generating a signal (S MIQ ) with a high frequency carrier wave wherein the I and Q components are time multiplexed; and a single Power Amplifier for amplifying said signal (S MIQ ).
