ABSTRACT:
A radio frequency transmitter arrangement for a magnetic resonance apparatus has a distribution unit and an antenna unit, wherein the antenna unit, to generate radio frequency fields, is fashioned in at least two orthogonal modes, and the distribution unit is fashioned for the division of an RF transmission signal into at least two mode feed signals. At least one adjustment unit is provided to adjust the amplitude and/or phase of one of the mode feed signals and is connected with the antenna unit such that each of the mode feed signals generates a radio frequency field in one of the modes. A multiple transmitter arrangement has at least two radio frequency transmitter arrangements and at least two 180° hybrids. A method is provided to determine at least one setting parameter of the adjustment unit.
