Abstract
This transmitter is provided with: a digital delay circuit which delays a 1-bit digital RF signal on the basis of another 1-bit digital RF signal; an amplifier which amplifies a signal output by the digital delay circuit; and a band-pass filter which allows signals in a prescribed frequency band, from among signals output by the amplifier, to pass. A signal output by the band-pass filter is input into a corresponding one antenna element from among a plurality of antenna elements, and controls the directionality of a beam formed by the plurality of antenna elements.
