Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide an amplifier having high signal-to-noise ratio of a transmitted signal and high electrical efficiency. Another purpose is to suppress complexity of amplifier's wiring connecting a signal generator that generates a binary digital signal and an amplification unit that amplifies the same. This amplifier generates a binary digital signal. The amplifier further generates a K-value digital signal (K is an integer greater than or equal to 3) from the binary digital signal and generating a plurality of binary digital signals from the K-value digital signal. The amplifier amplifies each of the plurality of binary digital signals, and combines the plurality of amplified binary digital signals and generating a combined signal having a substantially proportional relationship with the K-value digital signal.
