Abstract:
The present invention describes a phased array transmitter and a method for beamforming. The phased array transmitter comprises a plurality of transmitting branches configured for up-converting an IF signal to an RF signal with a desired RF phase shift. Each transmitting branch is configured for phase shifting the IF signal with a first phase shift and the LO signal with a second phase shift such that the combined first and second phase shift is the desired RF phase shift of the transmitting branch.

Claim (Index 12):
The method in accordance with  claim 7 , wherein:\n splitting further comprises splitting a second IF signal into a plurality of second input IF signals and feeding each of the plurality of second input IF signals to a corresponding transmitting branch; phase-shifting, for each transmitting branch, further comprises phase-shifting the second input IF signal with a second IF phase shift to obtain a second phase shifted IF signal that is added to the phase shifted IF signal, wherein the choice of the second IF phase shift is determined such that the combined IF and LO phase shift of each transmitting branch is a second desired RF phase shift.
