Abstract

A signal of varying amplitude in a first saturated power amplifier that operates from a fixed voltage power supply to produce a first output signal of constant amplitude. The signal of varying amplitude also is amplified in a second saturated power amplifier that operates from a modulated voltage power supply, to produce a second output signal of amplitude that depends on the signal of varying amplitude, a modulated power supply voltage, and on an invert/noninvert control signal. The first and second output signals are combined into a load. The modulated voltage power supply is modulated while generating the invert/noninvert control signal, such that the combined first and second output signals into the load amplify the signal of varying amplitude. The signal of varying amplitude also may be of varying amplitude and varying phase.
