A transmission stage in polar loop technology includes an amplitude
regulation means, a phase regulation means, a VCO and a feedback path. In
the feedback path a variable amplifier is provided. The amplitude
regulation means is further implemented in order to be controlled by a
control means according to a request for a power variation in the output
signal of the amplifier in order to correspondingly vary an amplitude
control signal for the power amplifier. Simultaneously, the control means
is implemented in order to correspondingly control the variable feedback
path amplifier, so that the amplitude of the output signal of the
variable feedback path amplifier remains in a narrowly limited
predetermined range. Thus, power variations in the output signal of the
amplifier operated in the non-linear area are held remote from the phase
locked loop, so that the phase regulation means may be implemented at low
cost and operates reliably anyway.
