Abstract
A polar modulator of the present invention includes: a first function block which generates an amplitude signal and a phase signal; a second function block which adjusts the signal delay between the amplitude signal and the phase signal; a third function block which allows the low frequency component of the amplitude signal to pass therethrough; a fourth function block which modulates the phase of the phase signal; a fifth function block which outputs a modulation voltage, based on the amplitude signal; a sixth function block which modulates the amplitude of the phase signal, based on the modulation voltage; a seventh function block which measures the temperature of at least one function block; and an eighth function block which calculates a compensation amount for the signal delay, based on the measured temperature. The second function block adjusts the signal delay, based on the compensation amount.
