    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed a wideband multiphase transmitter with two-point modulation. A transmitter includes a control circuit configured to receive a source signal having amplitude and phase components. Using the phase component, the control circuit generates a frequency control signal and a phase jump signal. The transmitter further includes a phase conversion circuit configured to generate a first phase-modulated signal using the phase component and the frequency control signal. The phase conversion circuit is also configured to adjust the phase of the first phase-modulated signal using the phase jump signal. The first phase-modulate signal and the amplitude component are provided to an amplifier, which generates a transmit signal based thereon.

    Abstract: An electronic device may include wireless circuitry with a baseband processor, a digital transmitter, a digital-to-analog-converter (DAC), and an antenna. The baseband processor may produce baseband signals. The digital transmitter may generate self-interference-compensated signals based on the baseband signals. The DAC may generate radio-frequency signals for transmission by the antenna based on the self-interference-compensated signals and square-wave local oscillator waveforms. The digital transmitter may include a self-interference canceller that generates the self-interference-compensated signals. The self-interference-compensated signals may mitigate the creation of self-interferer repetition replicas that land on the carrier frequency of the radio-frequency signals. This may allow the radio-frequency signals to be free from error vector magnitude degradation and spectral regrowth that would otherwise be produced due to self-interference in the radio-frequency signals output by the DAC.
