    Abstract: An apparatus for generating a radio frequency signal based on a symbol within a constellation diagram is provided. The constellation diagram is spanned by a first axis representing an in-phase component and an orthogonal second axis representing a quadrature component. The apparatus includes a processing unit configured to select one of a plurality of segments of the constellation diagram containing the symbol. The segment is delimited by two radially extending boundaries, wherein the two radially extending boundaries span an opening angle of the segment that is different from 90°. The processing unit is further configured to calculate a first coordinate of the symbol with respect to a third axis, and a second coordinate of the symbol with respect to a fourth axis. At least one of the third axis and the fourth axis coincides with one of the two radially extending boundaries. The apparatus further includes a plurality of digital-to-analog converter cells configured to generate the radio frequency signal using the first coordinate and the second coordinate.

    Abstract: An apparatus for generating a transmit signal includes an up-conversion module and a delay module. The up-conversion module up-converts a first component signal of a multi-phase baseband transmit signal using a first oscillator signal and up-converts a delayed second component signal of the multi-phase baseband transmit signal using a second oscillator signal to generate a radio frequency transmit signal. The first oscillator signal and the second oscillator signal comprise an oscillator signal phase offset so that an edge of the second oscillator signal occurs earlier than a corresponding edge of the first oscillator signal. The delay module delays a second component signal of the multi-phase baseband transmit signal relative to the first component signal of the multi-phase baseband transmit signal by a predefined component signal delay to generate the delayed second component signal of the multi-phase baseband transmit signal.

    Abstract: A communication system receives an input signal along a signal processing path and generates a converted output signal via a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The signal processing path branches into two different branches, a magnitude branch and a sign branch for different components of the baseband signal. A local oscillator (LO) provides a carrier signal to the signal processing path at the DAC and further generates an LO leakage signal comprising a signed LO leakage and an unsigned LO leakage during the up-conversion of signals of the sign branch with a carrier. An unsigned LO suppression component is configured to reduce or eliminate the unsigned LO leakage and a signed LO suppression component is configured to reduce or eliminate the signed LO leakage form a baseband signal of the signal processing path.
