Abstract
The transmitter adjusting output power is provided with a signal generator for generating a transmit signal, a variable-gain drive amplifying stage, a variable-gain power amplifying stage for amplifying in power the amplified transmit signal, and a control voltage generator for generating a first gain control voltage for adjusting the signal gain of the variable-gain drive amplifying stage and a second gain control voltage for adjusting the signal gain of the variable-gain power amplifying stage, wherein the control voltage generator generates the second gain control voltage to adjust the signal gain of the variable-gain power amplifying stage when the required signal level is not higher than a certain fixed level and generates a first gain control voltage to adjust the signal gain of the variable-gain drive amplifying stage when the required signal level is not lower than a certain fixed level.
